The Twilight of Magic
"The Twilight of Magic" was written in 1930 by Hugh Lofting (1886-1947), telling about the Middle Ages, when adults and children alike still believed in magic. The tale is full of castles, kings, cavalcades of knights and princesses. The main characters Giles and Anne are nine-year-old twins and the children of a prosperous wagon-wright who is inexplicably in debt. They decide to seek help from Agnes the Applewoman, even though most of the townsfolk think she is an evil witch because she has cats and psychic powers ...
