WITCHLANDERS By: Lena Coakley

WITCHLANDERS  By: Lena Coakley
Living high up in the mountains the red witches pray to goddess, throwing bones, telling the future, and protecting the Witchlanders from danger. Ryder has heard these stories of witches since he was just a little boy. He's just never believed them. But when a terrifying, evil creature attacks his village, Ryder has no choice but to travel into the mountains and beg the "witches" for help. Everything he's ever believed about magic, the witches, and himself changes on his journey to save his village. As Ryder braves the steep mountain ledges he discovers that witches may not be as make believe as he once thought and they're magic may be the only way to save his home. Ages 12 and up. Antheneum $16.99 Reviewed by Maggie age 16.
