The Lancashire Witches

The dialect is heavy but once you get into the book it feels completely natural. This tale was written by a Lancashire man not so very long after the incident and has an 'authentic retelling' aura. You really feel you know the landscape and culture of the Pendle Hill area - many of the locations and landmarks still exist. The typing is minuscule which makes it difficult to read - at least it seemed so to my poor old tired eyes - but it was so well written that once I got into the book I could hardly put it down. Lots of action, lots of suspense, lots of supernatural magic and no doubt some true history as well.

The history and folklaw surrounding the Pendle Witches is well worth delving into.Found the book was well worth the read but have to admit at times I did find it a little tedious. Nevertheless I am pleased I took the time to see it through.Thanks to the author who clearly knew his stuff.

Difficult read but detailed
