Fiction: The Goblin Wood

In this complex story, it's not always easy to tell the difference between good and evil. 12 year old Makenna's mother is a hedgewitch, and when the Hierarch announces that witchcraft is evil, her friends and neighbours murder her. Consumed with fear and a desire for revenge, Makenna flees the village and befriends a tribe of goblins. The goblins are feared and hunted, for they are magical by nature; Makenna uses her wits and growing witchcraft to lead them as they fight for their survival. A thought provoking read, and an exciting adventure for fantasy readers.
