It’s always tough being the new kid in the coven.

Critics Review
“The Witches of Silverlake is subversive, funny, shocking, and witty. It’s a captivating story of friendship and family wrapped in queer magic and terrifying demons. I adored it from start to finish. The only drawback is that I can’t hang out with this fantastic coven in real life.” – –David M. Booher, Writer of Ghostbusters, Dungeons & Dragons, Killer Queens“The Witches of Silverlake was a cornucopia of my favorite things: queer found family, witches, bad deals, demons, and a splash of dark academia. Son’s art is lovely and soft and felt like all of my favorite webcomics. My only disappointment is that there’s not a dozen more books to read about this queer coven.” – –Mickey George, writer of The Heart Hunter and Speak Easy, Speak Love“A page-turning, addictive read! I was completely drawn into Elliot’s world as he found a beautiful, complicated family in his new high school’s coven. Would give this to anyone who loves magic, diverse coming of age stories, and gorgeous art.” – –Kelly Zekas, co-writer of Championess and These Vicious Masks
