Remember, November
2018
ASIN moved from less recent edition here Britain may have won the First World War, but the witches of ADAM lost. Now an embarrassment, the Allied Directorate for Alternative Means is to be disbanded and its witches scattered, their lives overturned and shattered once again. Presented with a final chance to keep their budding coven together, it will take more than magic for them to succeed. When Millie Brown's best friend goes missing from the program, she must track her down and bring her home before she's hunted down by a government that no longer wants anything to do with witchcraft. If that weren't enough, if Millie fails, not only will ADAM be disbanded, but the beguiling witch Elise will be sent back to France. Fearing that as much as her own feelings for Elise, Millie will have to look within herself to find the truth of her magic and hold together that which is most important to her or lose it all. And a young woman known only as November wakes up on Christmas morning in an empty grave with no memory of who she is or why she can do impossible things. With no memory of her past, she must struggle to find out just who she was and why it has come back to try to kill her. The sudden manifestation of a power she can't understand and barely control makes it all the more urgent, for the sake of everyone around her as much as herself.

The Fires of Winter
2018
ASIN moved from less recent edition here "…there's a reason witches don't gather that often. Especially Manifested ones." "Which is?" "It's messy." Three months after the armistice that brought the War to End All Wars to a close, the witches of EVE are still adjusting to their newfound powers and responsibilities. Victoria Ravenwood is still deeply scarred, struggling with not only her growing power, but also with memories new and old. Millie Brown, on the other hand, is as happy as she has ever been, save for what her relationship to Elise means for Victoria and the rest of EVE. But when word comes down that EVE will finally be getting new members, Victoria, Millie and Elise will be forced to adjust to a lot more. With astonishing new Manifests, but shattered by war and revolution, the fiery new witches have the potential to make EVE stronger than anyone had thought possible. In the dead of winter, however, fire can be as dangerous as it is necessary, and it will either light the way forward for the witches together, or the fuse on the bomb that will blow them apart.

Hall of Mirrors
2019
"…200 years of secrecy, all gone in moments. You chose to use your magic publicly." "I chose to save the lives of hundreds of people." The fiery revelation of magic's existence by the witches of EVE has been met with excitement, wonder, acceptance… and fear. While Longstown is abuzz with the energy of hosting its first suffrage rally, the witches of EVE are trying to come to terms with their sudden notoriety. Attention is falling on them from every angle, and it results in a pair of invitations that they are unable to refuse. To witness the signing of the Treaty of Versailles is the chance of a lifetime, the end of the war that changed them forever. But when a new witch suddenly arrives to demand Victoria and Katya explain themselves to the first Great Council of witches in over 200 years, it could spell the end of EVE. Or witchkind as they know it.

Colours of Dawn
2020
In a time of new beginnings, the past still holds power over the future. With the EVE Witchcraft Conservatory on the verge of opening its doors, Millie Brown and the newly-minted Doctor Victoria Ravenwood return home to Longstown changed. After years-long battles both figurative and literal, they are welcomed back just in time to have the futures of 24 would-be witches placed in their hands while the eyes of the world watch. But the past will not let go so easily, and Millie, Victoria and Katya will have to find the courage to face it or risk shattering EVE from the inside out. To do so, they will need each other more than ever, and in ways they never imagined. Emotions run high as change runs rampant, and only the strength of their love for one another as friends, lovers and sisters will determine whether they lead EVE into a gathering dusk or a bright new dawn.

The Raven and the Firebird
2022
As daily life settles in at the EVE Witchcraft Conservatory, new opportunities, lives and love abound. Victoria and Katya's relationship is ever-evolving, while Millie and Elise are coming to understand what it truly means to be a Bonded witch. At the same time, the school is flourishing, a place of discovery, encouragement and equality. To women and witches everywhere, Longstown has become a beacon brighter than any other. But is it bright enough to shine through the storm rolling in from Germany? For when Helga arrives with an announcement, she brings with her a request: help. Help that only the most famous, most powerful witches in history can provide. Agreeing means thrusting EVE directly into German politics and gaining the attention of Adolf Hitler and his growing Nazi party, while declining would go against the very principles EVE was founded on, yet keep the school safe. EVE's public choices may be nothing to the private ones, however. After all, its greatest secret was never going to stay that way forever...

Pax Victoria
2022
"It is time to lay history to rest so that the future may live." For eleven years, the witches of EVE have made it their mission to ensure that the War to End All Wars remains exactly that. So when Svetlana returns home to Longstown with a proposal for a true, permanent peace in Europe, it's met with jubilation—and on the heels of tragedy, a renewed optimism that the future they have sacrificed so much for might actually be on the horizon. For those still sifting through the ashes of victory and defeat alike, it also presents a second, more personal opportunity: the chance to rest. But in order for the world to achieve true peace, so must Victoria Ravenwood. When she learns that the British government has started a program to put her theories on atomic energy into practical use, the realization that she may have inadvertently unlocked the ability for humanity to destroy itself comes with a singular responsibility: only she can stop it. After years of struggle with trauma and depression, is her love for her family and partner Katya enough to finally overcome her demons safely? Or will they drive her to pay the ultimate price to ensure they live into the glorious new future that they have been building together? Love, legacy and the true meaning of family—the final chapter in the From the Ashes of Victory series!
