The Craft for Gen Z: The Feast Makers, indie bestselling author H. A. Clarke crafts an action-packed conclusion to the Scapegracers trilogy, as our beloved teen coven tackle college acceptances, queer romance, and a witch trial to remember for the ages.

After restoring their powers, Sideways just wants to get on with senior year. But the covens have convened for the trial of Madeline Kline. When this stubborn, independent witch begs the Scapegracers to save her from a cruel and unusual punishment, Sideways knows they have to get involved. It’s the right thing to do, even if Madeline did steal their soul and wear it for a time. Right?

Making an example out of Madeline seems, strangely, just as important to the most powerful covens as divvying up the Scapegracers amongst themselves. Sideways, Jing, Daisy, and Yates are reluctant to abandon what they’ve built together, but as the college acceptances (and rejections) roll in, the offer of a magical family beyond Sycamore Gorge becomes increasingly tempting.

Unfortunately, choosing a new coven will have to wait: witchfinders are gathering in town, and some of these visitors make the Chantrys seem tame in comparison. Every witch—Scapegracer or not—is about to be in grave danger. 

And on top of all that, Sideways thinks they just might be in love.

In H. A. Clarke’s signature raw and explosive style, The Feast Makers brings the indie-bestselling Scapegracers trilogy to a dynamic end as Sideways, Jing, Daisy, Yates, and Shiloh tackle college acceptances, queer romance, and the meaning of justice in an ever-challenging world.

Praise for The Feast Makers

The Feast Makers is a decadent work of absolutely feral genius. Reading it made me grow extra teeth. This one cements H.A. Clarke as a put-everything-down, cancel-plans must-read for me.”—Sarah Gailey, Hugo Award winner and bestselling author of The Echo Wife

“H.A. Clarke’s charmed third runs on pure adrenaline, every line crusted with glitter and pith, the story racing to a deeply satisfying end. Sideways Pike is the teenage butch hero everyone wants to be (or do). Not to brag, but I begged to blurb this book.” —Andrea Lawlor, Whiting Award winner and author of Paul Takes the Form of a Mortal Girl

The Feast Makers, like Scapegracers and Scratch Daughters before it, is voicey, loud, and feral. The magic sparks up out of the pages like electricity, a little bit of pain and a whole lot of cool. Sideways Pike is not only the most disastrous of the disaster lesbians currently gracing fiction, but they are also a fantastic narrator--their voice (and the style with which H.A. Clarke writes them) is unique and deeply real. Clarke has crafted a perfect ending to their trilogy about the brilliant, glittering magic that is a gang of girls(ish) loving each other so fiercely they peel off the page and live. —Nicole Wolf, Old Firehouse Books (Fort Collins, CO)
