About the Book

Set in a modern world inhabited by covert witches, Black and White: factions divided by hatred and united by only one thing - fear of a boy descended from both sides.聽 Meet Nathan, he lives in no-man's land, on the blurred boundary between black and white magic.聽 Illegitimate; exiled. Wanted by no one; hunted by everyone.聽

Half Bad is a parallel universe occupied by witches, where light and dark, good and evil are in continuous flux.聽 It is a journey into adulthood, whereby Nathan must find himself, and his place in the world.聽 A journey of discovery that will lay bare the best and the worst of humankind.
