Marjorie said: A diary of 11-year old Ymaldris, youngest of three Goblin brothers. Great Uncle Silvestris, who is the Dark Lord’s top Goblin sorcerer, says young Ymaldris has what it takes to become one too, so Ymaldris is sent to the Red Witch as an apprentice.
“But the Dark Lord’s laws are clear on this one: an apprentice is his Master’s property for seven years or unless you get chucked out as useless. And nobody will take you on after that.”
Author Alex D’Angelo and I won the M.E.R. Award (one of the Media24 Books Literary Awards) for the best illustrated children’s book published in South African during the previous year (2011)
