Resumen del Editor

A finalist for the 2017 Locus Award for Best Novella!

It’s December in the English village of Lychford - the first Christmas since an evil conglomerate tried to force open the borders between our world and...another.

Which means it’s Lizzie’s first Christmas as Reverend of St. Martin’s. Which means more stress, more expectation, more scrutiny by the congregation. Which means...well, business as usual, really.

Until the apparition of a small boy finds its way to Lizzie in the church. Is he a ghost? A vision? Something else? Whatever the truth, our trio of witches (they don’t approve of “coven”) are about to face their toughest battle yet!

The Lost Child of Lychford is the sequel to Paul Cornell's Witches of Lychford.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Cornell weaves together a fast-paced story and engrossing character studies; he paints a setting of a gloomy English countryside, disarming his readers with magic and danger that lurks unseen. Beneath the suspense lies wry humor that buoys the tale along." (Publishers Weekly)

"Cornell introduces some genuine existential chills into this ingratiating setting." (Chicago Tribune)

Truly creepy, with some inexplicable magic.

On balance, I enjoyed this novella of Lychford as much as or even more than the first. It had great action, some truly creepy horror scenes and fantastic character development for the three main protagonists. But it also left me feeling somewhat frustrated. I listened at a faster speed than usual, so perhaps I missed key details, but I didn't get a good grasp on how some of the magic worked. I was able to make inferences to explain some occurrences, but others left me scratching my head. I haven't decided yet if this annoys me, or if it's a brilliant touch by the author to portray how magic might be if it actually existed: Arbitrary, chaotic and inexplicable.

Emma Newman's narration was quite good. I especially enjoyed her world-weary, wry voice for Judith.

Excellent

Terrific story and narration. Excited to listen to the rest of the series with only the regret that my listening of the series will be completed in the next week or so. More novels, please (especially remaining two Shadow Police).
