Witch Wood by John Buchan
David Sempill is being torn apart. When black magic is uncovered in the ancient Witch Wood, as a man of God he must fight it, but his love for the beautiful, pagan Katrine and the religious extremism of the time puts him at the centre of a deadly spiral. Buchan's favourite novel is a terrifying portrait of a cruel and intolerant age.'One of Scotland's most enduringly popular writers'
* The Scotsman *'Buchan knew that you can't buck the consequences of your actions, and that your life is what you make of itPerhaps his peculiarly Scottish combination of Romanticism and Calvinism - daring living and high thinking - is due to return to fashion'
