Description from the publisher:
Death stalks the dreams of the residents of Harbor City, and bodies are piling up.

Laci Valentine is done. Done with magic. Done with the Cauldron Coven. Done with the people around her dying. She is through being a witch. Then, Nazareth Xavier appears with a message from Hekate, Goddess of the Underworld.

The Cauldron Coven is shattered. Two members are dead, two have walked away, and three are heartbroken over everything that happened over the last month. Tansy Paxton fears it's the end of her small coven when a young witch, Sherri Rockford, enters The Murky Cauldron. Hope fills Tansy until things begin to feel a little too familiar. Has another demon entered the Land Above? Or is Sherri just a witch on the wrong path?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

DEATH'S SHROUD is the first book in the Cauldron Coven series. Because this is a continuing series, these will need to be read in the order of release.
 
This was the first book in the series, but it felt like I was missing a previous story.  There was so much reference to previous happenings, that I was left to wonder if I had missed a prequel.  Everything was explained, but it still felt like I should have read a previous story.
 
I enjoyed learning about the hellhounds, necromancers, witches, the dybbuk, and the apprentice lore master elf.  I quickly fell in love with Laci, Jayden, and even Regina. 
 
It was beautifully woven story, just an information dump for someone not already in the know for the back story (Looking at the titles, I wonder if perhaps this is a spin off of Warriors of the Way series?)  I already have the next book in this series, and I will be reading it right away.  I’m hoping that I as I dive into more of this coven’s life, I will become more invested in these characters.
 
Note:  While I received this book as a gifted ARC, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
