'Beautiful and engaging and clever and what more could you ask for
in a book?'-Manda Scott, bestselling author of A Treachery of Spies
'A story that is full of magic and delight that will thrill readers
of any age'-Rowan Coleman, author of The Girl at the Window
'Extremely funny, full of imagination, verve and typical English
'home counties' wit'-Irish Independent As Spitfires roar overhead
and a dark figure stalks the village of Woodville, a young woman
will discover her destiny . . . Faye Bright always felt a little
bit different. And today she's found out why. She's just stumbled
across her late mother's diary which includes not only a spiffing
recipe for jam roly-poly, but spells, incantations, runes and
recitations . . . a witch's notebook. And Faye has inherited her
mother's abilities. Just in time, too. The Crow Folk are coming.
Led by the charismatic Pumpkinhead, their strange magic threatens
Faye and the villagers. Armed with little more than her mum's
words, her trusty bicycle, the grudging help of two bickering old
ladies, and some aggressive church bellringing, Faye will find
herself on the front lines of a war nobody expected. For fans of
Lev Grossman and Terry Pratchett comes this delightful novel of
war, mystery and a little bit of magic . . . Don't miss the other
