It’s Lally’s world and the only one she’s ever known. But when her father pulls an ancient piece of wood from the canal and fashions it into a puppet, strange things begin to happen. Soon Lally starts to wonder whether there is something sinister about the wooden doll – could she be connected to the mysterious hagwitch? A gripping tale of myth, magic and the secret world of the theatre.
Review
I really enjoyed Hagwitch. First of the cover is beautiful, I absolutely love the cover! The colours are beautiful and I would pick it up if I saw it on a bookshelf. Secondly, the story captivated me.
Hagwitch is a great read, I recommend it to anyone who loves a good read of myth and magic, and a story that also gives you chills (Megan Readingawaythedays 2013-03-21)
