Goodreads Synopsis: 

On the run from the Coven with her former teacher Calpurnia, Courtney Crumrin is quickly learning just how sinister the witches and warlocks of Hillsborough can be - but she never thought she'd see the day when Uncle Aloysius turned on her as well. It's a lot harder to fight a battle when the only family you care about is against you, and Courtney's only salvation may lie in the Twilight Kingdom - and away from the mortal world. But Aloysius won't give up his niece so easily, even if he has to fight the night creatures to do it!

 Review: 

I am so sad to see this series come to an end. Courtney is a strong girl who has been through so much in these volumes, she is sarcastic and macabre and I love that about her character. In Volume 6, we follow Courtney while she flees to save herself from the council, her uncle’s slow departure, and her powers as a witch growing.

This was a wonderful ending to the series, most of the touched on ties were cleared up and the ending was both surprising and very well done. I don’t want to go into too much detail, since you may not know what has happened up until this point but I think that everything ended well for all parties.

I love the special edition covers and extras, which included the covers from all the single issues as well as a bonus comic. The art is just as good as all the other issues dark, fun, and full of those small details that I have come to love in comics and graphic novels. What can I say, I just really love this series.
