About this listen
Once upon a time, a somewhat wicked witch named Gretsella lived in a cozy little cottage in the Dark Forest of Brigandale. She dispensed herbs and tinctures at reasonable prices, met with her slightly oddball coven on a regular basis, and had absolutely no need of any further company whatsoever, thank you very much. But then one afternoon, Gretsella came home to find a screaming infant on her doorstep.
Against all her better judgement, she took the baby in. She named him Bradley.
Eighteen years later, Bradley has grown into a bafflingly likable young man under Gretsella’s extremely tolerant—one might even say doting—eye. But the witch’s hopes for an unremarkable yet fulfilling life for her son are shattered when small woodland animals start prophesying that he is the lost prince and should ascend to the throne. Bradley ignores Gretsella’s advice that prophecies and talking chipmunks are to be avoided at all costs, and sets off for the capital. But soon confusion and chaos are reigning, and scheming courtiers are using Bradley for their own ends. Sometimes a witch has to roll up her sleeves and take matters into her own cauldron. So Gretsella resolves to bring about the downfall of her darling son…
Critic Reviews
“The Somewhat Wicked Witch of Brigandale is wildly witty, utterly delightful, and stars a cranky crone I absolutely adore. There’s nothing somewhat about how much I love this book.” – Sangu Mandanna, New York Times bestselling author of A Witch’s Guide to Magical Innkeeping
"My favorite thing I've read all year. A fairy tale for everyone who'd rather wear sensible shoes than glass slippers... Witchy, witty, wise, and wonderful." – Julie Leong, USA Today bestselling author of The Teller of Small Fortunes
