The Lost Child of Lychford

The Lost Child of Lychford

Paul Cornell2016
A finalist for the 2017 Locus Award for Best Novella! It’s December in the English village of Lychford – the first Christmas since an evil conglomerate tried to force open the borders between our world and... another. Which means it’s Lizzie’s first Christmas as Reverend of St. Martin’s. Which means more stress, more expectation, more scrutiny by the congregation. Which means... well, business as usual, really. Until the apparition of a small boy finds its way to Lizzie in the church. Is he a ghost? A vision? Something else? Whatever the truth, our trio of witches (they don’t approve of “coven”) are about to face their toughest battle, yet! The Lost Child of Lychford is the sequel to Paul Cornell's Witches of Lychford. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Oh man, this Lychford novella was super creepy! Which means it was an excellent Christmas-themed read! I love my horror stories set during Santa season :D Our favourite vicar is haunted by a strange little ghost, and everyone in Lychford seems... off. Or lost. Definitely a lot of suspense in this one! I remain utterly terrified of some of the happenings to our dear witches...

Even better & far creeper than the first! The Lychford novellas are the perfect cozy read, with three great characters. Lizzie the vicar got to shine in this novella, where in the first she was slightly overlooked. The downside of these stories being in novella format is that there isn't an opportunity to explore deeper into the interpersonal relationships between the three "witches". I want more of that! But no seriously, this story was still A+, a festive, creepy delight.
