About this product

Product Information

When Mary sees her grandmother accused of witchcraft and hanged for the crime, she is silently hurried to safety by an unknown woman. The woman gives her tools to keep the record of her days - paper and ink. Mary is taken to a boat in Plymouth and from there sails to the New World where she hopes to make a new life among the pilgrims. But old superstitions die hard and soon Mary finds that she, like her grandmother, is the victim of ignorance and stupidity, and once more she faces important choices to ensure her survival. With a vividly evoked environment and characters skilfully and patiently drawn, this is a powerful literary achievement by Celia Rees that is utterly engrossing from start to finish.

Bewitched by Witch Child.
Despite being aimed at a teen reader I loved this book and have given copies as presents to members of my creative writing group. The characterisation and story line are brilliant. I felt I shared the whole journey, physically and emotionally. Rees has captured the spirit of the times she writes about; it is believable, and the voices draw us into that world. I'm a critical reader, but found Rees's writing style worth applauding. Cant wait to read the sequel.

Great story
Well written and original intriguing storyline. Ideal for teenage readers, but just as enjoyable for adults
