Book Description:
This little-known classic by the late Marion Zimmer Bradley is a wonderful treat for readers feeling the loss of this marvelous author. Part of Bradley's beloved "Light" series, Witch Hill is a sensuous story of witchcraft, demonic possession, and true love.

Sara Latimer's last relative has died. Heartbroken and feeling totally alone, Sara moves to the family home she had just inherited, Witch Hill, only to find that she is shunned by most of her neighbors.

Finally Matthew Hay, one of her only allies, explains that Sara's aunt was a powerful, evil witch and that the townspeople fear that Sara is following in her footsteps. Matthew and his ladylove, Tabitha, are also witches, and they too believe that Sara has her aunt's powers-and that she is ready to be possessed by her aunt's waiting spirit.

Sara crumbles under the steady onslaught of Matthew and Tabitha's evil. For a time, her love for Brian Standish keeps her sane, but at last Sara is lost in a maelstrom of dark power and sex magick.

As a Champion of Light, Colin MacLaren cannot allow Sara to be destroyed by Matthew Hay. Even at the risk of his own soul, he will save Sara.

If you fid this book to be a "yawn", try reading Heartlight first. It will be a bit of a spoiler for the rest of the series, but then this and the others in the Light series will flesh out subplots from a different character's point of view. Witch Hill, The Inheritor, Ghostlight, Witchlight and Gravelight all expand on characters and plots from Heartlight, which is a page-turner. I was up til 2 am to finish it. Once you get to know Colin MacLaren, Witch Hill will take on a whole new perspective.

I found this book to be a bit strange, but okay. I gave it two 1/2 stars. Does have a bit of sex in it, nothing to wierd. Witchcraft themed.

Yawn. I do like MZB, but this book was just depressing, and I sort of like ribs - not much meat. I made about it through about 30 pages, then skipped to the last page to see how it ended.
