A captivating new original 20-page short story by Paula Brackston, author of
The Witch’s Daughter, “The Witches of the Blue Well” is the story of Ceri, a
young woman in early eighteenth-century Wales whose grandmother always told
her the magic blood of the women in their family flows through her veins. But
when famine and hardship come to their village, will Ceri be able to harness
her magic to save herself and her sister, or will her power bring about the
destruction of all that she loves? With her signature enchanting style, Paula
Brackston has penned an enthralling story set in the world of her newest novel
The Winter Witch.
In addition to the short story, THE WITCHES OF THE BLUE WELL, this also
contains a letter from the author, Paula Brackston, on writing THE WINTER
WITCH, an excerpt from “Welsh Folk Lore: a Collection of the Folk-Tales and
Legends of North Wales,” an authentic publication by the Reverend Elias Owen,
from 1886, on witchcraft in Wales, and an excerpt from THE WINTER WITCH, a
beautiful and moving novel coming from St. Martin’s Press in February.
