Get into the Halloween spirit with Witches: Wicked, Wild & Wonderful edited
by Paula Guran. Witches is an
anthology of short stories filled with magic and mystery. Neil Gaiman, Mercedes
Lacey, and Ursula K. Le Guin are just a few authors featured. Each story has
its own creative take on witches. Theodora Goss’s Lessons with Miss Gray argues that witchcraft is a science and can
be taught, while in Silvia Moreno-Garcia’s Bloodlines,
powers are inherited. Some stories are kid friendly so you can enchant your
children with a new bedtime story. You can also treat yourself to a spooky tale
in preparation for the holiday. There’s a story for everyone that is sure to
question your definition of “witch.”
