The Witchmaid's Quest - Maggie Brown was a hearthwitch, good at whipping up banquets and starting up fires. But her magic was not much good for tracking down her faery step-sister who'd run away with a gypsy. So she set out with Ching, the talking cat, and Colin Songsmith, a travelling minstrel, to bring back the beautiful Amberwine. Meeting a unicorn, a lovesick dragon and an enchanted bear. Braving ambush, flood and capture by gypsies in a rescue mission fraught with excitement and danger.

Review of 'Song of Sorcery' on 'Storygraph'

4 stars

Sorcery & Cecilia was like a Jane Austen novel. With magic. And a well-turned ending. Evil villains. And an enchanted chocolate pot. I really found this book delightful. It was easy to read, appropriate for younger readers, and exciting as well. The book is in an epistolary style, written in an exchange of letters between the two main characters, Cecilia and Katherine, and set in England close to the same time period as a Jane Austen novel. Sorcery & Cecilia is a collaborative work, and the authors wrote letters to each other, adopting the persona of their respective character and the result is this truly enjoyable story. I'd quickly recommend it.
