The Witch's Daughter (The Witch's Daughter, #1)

by Paula Brackston

There is comfort to be had in the company of wild things and delight to be found in their trust.

It is the cruelest of the torments of my great age that grief does not abate, not beyond a certain level. It merely continues, my only companion across oceans of time.

The trees provided a place unknowable and mysterious for shy and mythical creatures to abide in. It was a place of fairies and sprites and wood nymphs. A place of magic.
