A good choice for mystery fans as well as those with a penchant for the supernatural., The novel is set in the 1600's and brings to life the spirit of the Renaissance and the quest for knowledge. The character of Marco, Leo's father, is the epitome of the questioner as he searches for any and all references to man and how he is created. Leo, although just 14, is mature, and he has taken it upon himself to find out the truth about his family and the witch in the lake, a formidable task for someone so young. Leo is a character with whom the reader grows as he struggles through the challenges the truth thrusts upon him. The fantasy nature of the novel is believable because of the time in which it is set and the characters that are created. The Witch in the Lake is a refreshing novel which presents a glimpse into a period read about previously only in history books. Recommended.

Synopsis
A fantasy novel for 10 to 14 year olds is set in 16th century Italy and tells the story of young man's magical fight against a great evil surrounding his village., "...when the sky is dark and the moon is full, the witch will come creeping." Leo has heard the stories since he was a baby. "Don't go near the lake, little ones -- she waits there, under the water," mothers say. Countless children and adults have mysteriously disappeared, and the legends of the witch's powers have grown. Only one person has ever seen the witch -- Leo's grandfather -- and he was forever changed. It is the sixteenth century, and Leo's small Italian village harbors many great secrets. Some people believe that Leo and his father are evil, blaming them for the strange happenings near the cold, dark lake. Although forbidden to see him, Leo's best friend, Merilee, finds herself accompanying him on a dangerous journey in search of truth and redemption. Only Merilee knows that Leo, like his great grandfather Illuminato, is a wizard. Frustrated by the sinister secrets that surround him, Leo yearns to discover if the witch is real or just a superstition. On a rebellious visit to the lake one day, Leo challenges the witch to show herself, taunting her and calling her names, despite Merilee's desperate pleas. As the water peels back, "like the lips of an ugly wound," Leo knows that he has found his answer. From that moment on, he is locked in a fateful duel with the witch. At the height of Leo's quest, when the witch calls to him at night with a moaning cry, Merilee is taken by her acrid aunt to a refuge of Wise Women far away. With his only friend gone, Leo must now face the witch alone and free the village of her century-old curse. Although he has been honing his magical skills since he was a child, Leo is still young and his powers are untested. In a dramatic final encounter, Leo focuses all his strength, concentrating on the core evil of the witch. As she withers and fades, generations of lost villagers are released from their prison within her. In this gripping novel, Anna Fienberg has created a magical story about challenging fear and finding courage to face the truth.

    Fast delivery of this much-loved pony book I never read as a child as it was so rare, which will become yet another treasure to add to my pony book collection. Being all that it was described, in great condition for its age & and for a reasonable price for its rarity it was excellent value for money. Add very low US postage, great customer service and protective packaging this resulted in a very enjoyable purchasing experience. Highly recommended seller who I would buy from again in a heartbeat.
