  • The Witch's Daughter

    Nina Bawden

    Paperback (Faber and Faber, Sept. 19, 2009)
    On the Scottish island of Skua, friendship develops between the lonely and mysterious Perdita and a blind girl, Janey. Both possess a kind of second sight - Janey's is the ability to hear, feel and remember more than others, and Perdita's is the ominous legacy of her being a witch's daughter. When Janey's brother, Tom, starts investigating a cluster of mysterious events and suspicious characters, all three become entwined in an adventure of hidden jewels, desperate criminals and dangerous detection. Written in 1963, The Witch's Daughter showcases Nina Bawden's innate regard for the integrity of her young characters. As she has said: 'I like writing for children. It seems to me that most people underestimate their understanding and the strength of their feelings and in my books for them I try to put this right.' Hugely admired on publication by both reviewers and readers, it was described as 'thrilling' by the Times Literary Supplement.
  • The Vicar's Daughter

    George MacDonald

    Leather Bound (Sunrise Books, Dec. 1, 2001)
    A sequel to The Seaboard Parish, and following the early married life of one of the Walton daughters, this third book in what is sometimes called "The Marshmallows Trilogy" is even less dramatic of plot than its prequel, demonstrating that (though he was paid a tremendous sum for it in comparison to the fifty pounds or less he received for some books), his remarkable output and quality notwithstanding, not every one of MacDonald's titles can be considered a masterpiece. Its characterization of MacDonald's friend and patron Lady Byron, however, is noteworthy.
