ABOUT THE BOOK:

BLURB:

In Harangul, a village in the Latur district of Maharashtra, the Nehra family wakes up to what they believe is an ordinary day. But things are about to take a dark turn in the little village when a mysterious old woman moves into the abandoned house next door.

Padma, a simple woman, is married to Mohan, a hardworking tailor. They have four children and are raising them in a loving, traditional Hindu family. They enjoy the culture of their small community and rely on their many friends, elders, and traditions to lead happy and spiritual lives. But soon after the arrival of the strange woman next door, a child is involved in a horrible, fatal incident. Another child becomes seriously ill, and a woman falls to her death from her roof. Then Padma's own family suffers a tragic loss.

Mohan and Padma seek spiritual advice, to no avail, and the authorities offer no assistance. Finally in desperation, as things become more bizarre in the colony, a party of brave men ventures out to seek a strong baba from far away. With faith, strength, and a very strong sense of community, the people of Harangul work tirelessly to free their home from the grasp of a terrible evil presence-a daayan who threatens their very existence.

The Witch's Revenge is a striking novel that seamlessly blends Indian tradition with suspense and horror-a book eloquently presented by a gifted new storyteller.

MY REVIEW:

I received a free copy of the book from the author for my honest opinion.

Mohan is a man who loves his wife and four children very much. He is a very hard working man who loves taking care of his family he goes to work as a tailor everyday so that he can provide for his family. His wife Padma loves her family just as much as her husband if not more. Padma is not like a lot of the other mothers who live in their village. I loved that Padma would wake each of her children at different times in the mornings before school to help them with their baths and getting them dressed for school. Padma loved the time that she spent with each of her children. She believed and wanted to give each child the same amount of her time. Padma was such a good mother and knew that not only did she love spending time with each child but her children needed this alone time with their mother as well. Most of the women in the village would bathe their children together to save time but not Padma.

Padma, Mahon, their children and everyone else who lived in the village were all like family. The women would take turns babysitting each other's children when they needed the help for whatever reason whether it is for one of them to go shopping or even just to give each other a break once in a while. They all stuck together and would do anything for each other. The women would gather together at each other's home and spend time with each other just talking and hanging out while their children played together.

Everyone that lived in the village were all very happy with their lives and family until a new woman moved into the house at the end of the street next door to Padma and her family. Padma is the only one that the old woman would visit and the only one who has seen her. After her arrival in the village bad things started to happen; children having bad accidents and even some were murdered. Padma and the whole village joined together and tried to stay in groups at all times hoping that the evil that had entered their village would not bother them as long as they were not alone. Everyone in the village except Padma thought the old woman was a witch and was the one who was taking away their children. Some of the men in the village along with Mohan went on a little journey far, far away to another village to find a Baba to help them to get rid of the witch after their own Baba was killed.

I loved The Witch's Revenge from the first page until the very last page. I loved that Padma loved spending time with each of their children. She didn't care about how much earlier she had to get up in the mornings so she could spend that little bit of time with each of them. She wanted that closeness with all of her children not just one. She treated all of her children the same and she loved them the same too. Padma is a prime example to how all mothers should treat their children.

If you love reading about witches and evil wicked things with a whole lot of mystery thrown in then The Witch's Revenge is one book you need to check out. I love the world that author set up with everyone in the village being best friends with each other and would do anything they could for their neighbors.
