Book Blurb:
Clara and Angelica Grace have never met ghosts. They’ve never sailed on a tall ship, ridden wild unicorns, or fought with magical weapons. Instead, the teenage twins have a wretched existence, ignored by their troubled parents in a rundown home and tormented by the town’s snobs.
Everything turns topsy-turvy all of a sudden when discovery of an ancestor’s hidden journal with an odd key to an unknown door leads them into an entirely different realm.
The girls go on a thrilling oceanic voyage to search for mysterious whales, train with a seasoned warrior, and are befriended by a wise Master. But all is not a bouquet of lovely lilies…they are hunted by a cunning warlock and must rid themselves of The Warlock’s Curse.

My Review:
Time for another of Teddy's timely reviews! When I was a kid not that long ago, I did enjoy the story of Pete Pan and the magic of that story. So happy to have gotten the chance to read this awesome YA book! The Warlock's Curse is a modern-day trip to never land!
The twins are adorable and are pretty brave for living the life they do. Well, when your home and school life bite, there has to be a better place. How about a magical reality?
World building is a thing and that is a thing this author does with style. The world the twins adventure in is a gas. Fun with the capital F and exciting too. Fans of epic YA adventure will just love this book. Talking kitties? C'mon! That is something special that everyone can enjoy!
Terrific don't cut it here. This magic reality is fire and that is still not telling it like it is. A spectacular book that should be on everyone's e-reader. A YA tale that will keep you wanting more!

Author Biography:
Fascinated by the works of Tolkien and C.S. Lewis, C.B. Oresky began writing her own fantasy novel, The Warlock’s Curse, after dreaming of being whisked off to an alien realm. Besides her debut novel, she has seen four of her short stories published in a small, national literary press: Conceit Magazine. When she’s not writing, she can be found wandering through the woods, dancing flamenco, or planting flowers in her garden. She currently lives in a small town in Connecticut with her bodybuilder husband, their exceptionally naughty Scottish terrier and Siamese cat, ten chickens, Mr. Tiggy the hedgehog, and a yard filled with majestic flowers.
