The Gift of Evil tells how Griselda the witch turned to evil when but a child. Number 19 in the Tales of Ramion, it is the first in a prequel series which follows the witch Griselda from birth and written to be enjoyed independently of previous stories.
Sir Tancred Grunch wants an heir, but not a baby. When he decides to let his granddaughter staywith her parents until the age of five, the Princess of the Night (source of evil) screams in fury. "Stupid man! By the age of five Griselda may be set in the path of good!" The Princess sends birthday presents to ensure Griselda follows the path of evil.
Entertaining fantasy in the tradition of Lewis Carroll with lavish illustration with exuberantly coloured artwork. Beautiful production for added enjoyment and collect-ability.
