A contemporary reinvention of the women in Arthurian legend and imaginative escapade into the world of myth, from the bestselling graphic novelist of Glass Town and The One Hundred Nights of Hero 'Her perfect style feels timeless, dark and a little otherworldly' Kate Beaton, author of DUCKS 'Wonderful. I loved it' Sarah Waters, praise for GLASS TOWN Once there was magic in Britain. There were dragons and wizards and green knights and kings that pulled swords out of stones. But now, the doors to the Otherworld have closed. Young Hag, her mother and her grandmother, Ancient Crone, are the last of the witches in Britain. At least, that's what Ancient Crone says. Young Hag has grown up believing in the power of her grandmother. But when tragedy strikes, Young Hag turns her back on these tales.


Where is their magic when they really need it? And then one day they find a changeling baby in the woods. Confronted with real magic at last, Young Hag has no choice but to believe. She sets off on the greatest quest of her life: to bring the magic back to Britain. But when faced with myth, can Young Hag put aside her doubts? Or will she simply become a forgotten footnote in the tale of famous kings and wizards? From the bestselling graphic novelist of Glass Town and The One Hundred Nights of Hero comes a blazingly colourful imaginative escapade into the world myth. Young Hag ingeniously reinvents the women in Arthurian legend for readers everywhere, remaking the very act of storytelling with contemporary flair and eccentric warmth.
