A review by timinbc
Witches of Lychford by Paul Cornell
3.0
3.5 stars really.
Well-written, well-plotted, nice twist at the end.
But curiously not engaging.
I know rural England, and understand a bit of the encroachment of the urban ick, and had no problem with the way that was handled.
Felt a bit like reading alternating pages of "The Ocean at the End of the Lane" with an M.C. Beaton murder story.
Perhaps I was prejudiced by having hoped for another Shadow police novel.
