Astray

Ghosts of Albion #1 / 4
by Christopher Golden, Amber Benson
Astray (Ghosts of Albion #1) by Christopher Golden, Amber Benson
Unrated

Sibling sorcerers William and Tamara Swift mix it up with spirits and sprites in this zesty pastiche of the Victorian ghost story. In 1838 the Swifts—whose supernatural family pedigree makes them frequent hosts to the ghosts of Lord Byron, Queen Bodicea and other spectral standard bearers of England's glorious past—travel to the village of Blackbriar, where mothers of illegitimate newborns are finding their children magically swapped for demonic changelings.
