A wonderful story, and a wonderfully produced book! The only thing which disappointed me about reading this book was that it ever ended - can't wait for the follow up!
"The Spook's trained many, but few completed their time," Mum said, "and thos that did aren't a patch on him. They're flawed or weak or cowardly. They walk a twisted path taking money for accomplishing little. so there's only you left now, son. You're the last chance. The last hope. Someone has to do it. Someone has to stand against the Dark. And you're th only one who can."
Thomas Ward is the seventh son of a seventh son and has been apprenticed to the local Spook. The job is hard, the Spook is distant and many apprentices have failed before him. Somehow Thomas must learn how to exorcize ghosts, contain witches and bind boggarts. But when he is tricked into freezing Mother Malkin, the most evil witch in the County, the horror begins......
A fine book in a fine protected dustwrapper.
