MP3 Audio CD. In the background of evil cats, familiars and spirits found around Malkin tower, young Alizon Devi is raised by the dreaded witches of Lancashire in a tale with numerous twists and turns that forks the original story of the Lancashire Witches into a fantasy story worthy of recognition. Written by W.H. Ainsworth and placed largely in the 17th century, the book first follows the tale of a monk falsely accused of witchcraft who escapes his faith and takes on the name of Nicholas Demdike. Despite being granted special powers and becoming a true warlock, Demdike is later cursed by his rival, and his offspring later become the powerful but feared Lancashire witches. The tale itself should not be confused with the historic events associated with the well-known Lancashire Witches. Ainsworth paints an entirely different picture of the tale, and while using numerous elements from the real Lancashire, the book is not meant to be an historical account. Sometimes even diving into horror scenes,… Read More

Two were stationed on either side of the north-eastern extremity of the mountain. One looked over the castled heights of Clithero; the woody eminences of Bowland; the bleak ridges of Thornley; the broad moors of Bleasdale; the Trough of Bolland, and Wolf Crag; and even brought within his ken the black fells overhanging Lancaster. The other tracked the stream called Pendle Water, almost from its source amid the neighbouring hills, and followed its windings through the leafless forest, until it united its waters to those of the Calder, and swept on in swifter and clearer current, to wash the base of Whalley Abbey. But the watcher's survey did not stop here. Noting the sharp spire of Burnley Church, relieved against the rounded masses of timber constituting Townley Park; as well as the entrance of the gloomy… Read More
