Sycorax

A beautiful imagining of the life lived by the great witch Sycorax before her banishment to the island in William Shakespeare´s The Tempest Born of the sun and moon, shaped by fire and malady, comes a young woman whose story has never been told . . . They call her Sycorax. Seer. Sage. Sorceress. Outcast by society and all alone in the world, Sycorax must find a way to understand her true nature. But as her powers begin to grow, so too do the suspicions of the local townspeople. For knowledge can be dangerous, and a woman´s knowledge is the most dangerous of all . . . With a great storm brewing on the horizon, Sycorax finds herself in increasing peril - but will her powers save her, or will they spell the end for them all? A beautifully written and deeply moving imagining of what came before Shakespeare´s The Tempest from the author of A Girl Made of Air.
