The Spook's Stories: Witches

Delaney Joseph, 2009

This collection of stories is told from different points of view. So why doesn't the Spook trust girls who wear pointy shoes? Could it be because in his youth he fell in love with a young witch who then betrayed him and broke his heart and he was forced to leave her drugged and imprisoned in his winter house? Why did Grimalkin become the Assassin for the Malkin Witch clan? Is it because the Devil killed her child and so, mad with grief, she wanted to kill and so fought her way to the top and became the witch assassin? And what happened when Tom and his new master Arkwright met a Banshee witch, who foretold Arkwright's death? This is a dark and eerie collection. You don't have to know the Spook's books to enjoy the stories. They're all standalone but for any fans of the series out there this collection will be a must-have. Подробнее
