The Corn Bride

Praise for The Witches of Woodville series ‘Full of magic and delight that will thrill readers of any age’ Rowan Coleman ‘Beautiful and engaging and clever and what more could you ask for in a book?’ Manda Scott, bestselling author of A Treachery of Spies ‘Warm, witty, witchy wartime fun. With Mark Stay as writer you’re always guaranteed a magical read’ Julie Wassmer, author of the Whitstable Pearl Mysteries ‘Mark Stay’s brilliantly written Witches of Woodville books are somehow funny, cosy, clever and disturbingly dark all at the same time. Terry Pratchett fans will LOVE em’ Lucy Strange ‘Mark’s ingenious decision to set his magical saga not in some ancient realm of wizards and dragons but in a vividly recreated WWII-era rural England gives us the most lived-in and believable fantasy world. I wish I’d thought of it’ Mitch Benn ‘You’ll love it: Doctor Who meets Worzel Gummidge’ Lorna Cook, author of The Forgotten Village ‘ACE. Smart and funny and written so warmly … an absolutely smashing read’ Pernille Hughes, author of Probably the Best Kiss in the World ‘A jolly romp with witches, demons, and bellringing. Pratchett fans will enjoy this, and Faye is a feisty and fun hero. Dad’s Army meets Witches of Eastwick’ Ian W Sainsbury ‘A young witch to rival Tiffany Aching. Magic!’ FMA Dixon ‘Enid Blyton filmed by Hammer’ Talking Scared Podcast ‘Extremely funny, full of imagination, verve and typical English “home counties” wit’ Irish Independent

Mark Stay got a part-time Christmas job at Waterstone’s in the nineties (back when it still had an apostrophe) and somehow ended up working in publishing for over 25 years. He would write in his spare time and (he can admit this now) on company time, and sometimes those writings would get turned into books and films. Mark is also co-presenter of the Bestseller Experiment podcast, which has inspired writers all over the world to finish and publish their books. Born in London, he lives in Kent with YouTube gardener Claire Burgess and a declining assortment of retired chickens. Follow him on Twitter @markstaymarkstay.
