"The Near Witch" is only an old story told to frighten children.

If the wind calls at night, you must not listen. The wind is lonely and always looking for company.

There are no strangers in the town of Near.

These are the truths that Lexi has heard all her life.

But when an actual stranger, a boy who seems to fade like smoke, appears outside her home on the moor at night, she knows that at least one of these sayings is no longer true.

The next night, the children of Near start disappearing from their beds, and the mysterious boy falls under suspicion.

As the hunt for the children intensifies, so does Lexi's need to know about the witch that just might be more than a bedtime story, about the wind that seems to speak through the walls at night, and about the history of this nameless boy.

Part fairy tale, part love story, Victoria Schwab's debut novel is entirely original yet achingly familiar: a song you heard long ago, a whisper carried by the wind, and a dream you won't soon forget.

This new edition of The Near Witch also included the in-universe short story "The Ash-Born Boy" and a never-before-seen introduction from V. E. Schwab.

Such a beautiful story! I always have been and always will be a fan of Schwab’s writing. The only thing that bothered me was the constant upward intonation that the narrator had…made it feel a bit like every sentence was a question and sometimes was hard to differentiate between inner thoughts, dialogue and description.

Beautiful Story!

I love the book and all the books of V.E. Schwab, I have been reading many of them and also listen to many of her audiobooks. But this book, I am so disappointed of the woman that reads it. She stops at every sentence and has no emotion in hear voice and no acting skills at all🙈.

Love the story but the reader is terrible

I'm really sorry about this, because i usually like most authors and narrators, but the intonation of the narrator is so bad that it makes it almost impossible for one to understand what's happening in the story. it's almost impossible to get hooked with her making a stop in the middle of each sentence and going high every time. it was painful to go through the book. Again, I'm sorry, because i think the story is actually good. but this recording is simply not.

Good book. Nothing bad to say, but the authors later works are definitely better.
You can just tell, that it is an early work.
Narrator is good for falling asleep

Not bad, but later works are better
