    About this ebook

    Bren wondered, but not for long, why his normally cheerful, easy-going life had suddenly begun to seem hopelessly complicated. He was learning to run the lights for his school’s production of Macbeth, but that was fun, and so was alm everything about his first serious relationship—everything except the fact that he couldn’t bring his girl friend home. Bren had never really minded living with three witches, but now he did. How could he explain that his beautiful mother sp hours casting spells in her bat-haunted tower room while his grandmother told fortunes to paying customers in the living room and their housekeeper raised black chickens in the garden apartm for uses it was best not to contemplate? His father, after getting up in the morning to find a baby bat in his shoe and a python in his shirt drawer—the culmination of a long series of such evs—had exchanged the spacious old house for a simple, brick box on the East side.To make matters worse, Bren learned that Erika, his girl, had been cast as First Witch in Macbeth, so now he felt himself to be wallowing in witches. She was also not one to take no for an answer and soon b an agile mind to unraveling the mystery of Bren’s family. When on opening night only Erika saw three figures outlined in blue fire at the balcony rail, the amazing technical effects that followed were explained, if only to her.“One of the m intelligly funny young-adult fantasies to come out in years…”—2/LOCUS May 1991“The combination of first romance and magic is a dynamic one, and Gilmore nimbly carries off the blend with wit and grace.”—Booklist, starred review

    Kate Gilmore

    Kate Gilmore was educated at Antioch College where she spent most of her time in the theatre, lighting, directing, and doing many other theatrical chores. She fell in love with the stage and wrote two full length plays as well as a one-act in verse that was produced as the senior project of a friend.After college Kate went home to be with her parents and to write more plays, a program that was derailed by her marriage to John Gilmore, a mathematician and computer consultant. Starting out shortly after their wedding, the couple lived first in Milan, then in London, Tehran, Rome and rural New Hampshire, always coming home in between these adventures to much loved New York. They now live near Boston.When, after all this travel and raising two children, Kate returned to writing it was, for no very clear reason, to the young adult novel that she turned. Of her eight books six have been published and two others are sequels that will be available, seriatim, in the spring of 2014.
