Hiding behind the guise of a grimy old crone, the witch is content living outside Fort Stalwart with her unlikely band of allies: a troll named Gwurm, an enchanted broom, and a demonic duck named Newt. She leads a simple life filled with spells, potions, and the occasional curse.<br></div><div> </div><div>So when a White Knight arrives at Fort Stalwart, the witch knows her days of peace are at an end. The Knight is just days in front of a horde of ravenous goblings, and Fort Stalwart lies right in the horde&#8217;s path. But the goblings are just the first wave of danger, and soon the witch and the Knight must combine forces on a perilous quest to stop a mad sorcerer from destroying the world.</div><div> </div><div>Filled with menace, monsters, and magic, <i>A Nameless Witch</i> is a properly witchly read by the award-winning author of <i>Gil&#8217;s All Fright Diner</i> and <i>In the Company of Ogres</i>.</div></div></div> 218510 book 1 5 2007 A Nameless Witch total:249|5:55|4:109|3:69|2:16|1:0| 249 950 417 51 4 0 false false Mon Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Wed Jun 17 11:27:03 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 26 12:08:01 -0700 2009 A Nameless Witch is yet another of Martinez' humorous novels awash in the supernatural.
