Hand in hand, the witch's children walked down the empty road.

When Kara Westfall was six years old, her mother was convicted of the worst of all crimes: Witchcraft. Years later, Kara and her little brother, Taff, are still shunned by the people of their village, who believe that nothing is more evil than magic…except, perhaps, the mysterious forest that covers nearly the entire island. It has many names, this place. Sometimes it is called the Dark Wood, or Sordyr's Realm. But mostly it's called the Thickety.

The black-leaved trees swayed toward Kara and then away, as though beckoning her.

The villagers live in fear of the Thickety and the terrible creatures that live there. But when an unusual bird lures Kara into the forbidden forest, she discovers a strange book with unspeakable powers. A book that might have belonged to her mother.

And that is just the beginning of the story.

The Thickety: A Path Begins is the start of a thrilling and spellbinding tale about a girl, the Thickety, and the power of magic.

Amazing!!!!!!

I’m 49 and I loved this series. The writing style is quality, and the tone and mood is distinct. I personally found the protagonist sometimes annoying but it didn’t ruin the books for me at all. Taking in the Thickety series was like taking a trip thru a mysterious fantasyland, with some surprisingly high-stake storylines and wince-worthy betrayals that I’d expect more from adult fiction. Maybe this is similar to Harry Potter in that way? The protagonist goes thru some serious s and fights some very powerful evil over the series.

Really Good at age 9 or 49

Susan Duerden probably has the most diverse vocal range for a story full of varying ages and gender characters. The only negative comment I would leave is that her narrative ability is marred by a sing-song lull. Otherwise, she did a magnificent job of telling a magical tale.

Absolutely amazing!

What did you love best about The Thickety?

The thickety itself being the most interesting element - I wish there had been more about it in the story. I also liked the idea of the grimoire being like a living thing

How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?

More editing, faster pace, less tortuous events for the main character to endure.

Which character – as performed by Susan Duerden – was your favorite?

I wasn't aware that she did all the voices - if she did - she does a great male voice. I liked the voice of Sordyr

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

Spoiler alert - when her brother was healed

Any additional comments?

The themes of being the daughter of a witch and being an outcast are well worn - I feel like I've heard this story many times before. Certain elements were fresh and new - like the mechanical bird that watches Kara, the spells appearing in the Grimoire - after you have perfected them, etc. But overall, a great listen and would make a great movie - if paced better.

Inventive story but a little cliched and long

Any additional comments?

This is a pretty good start to a series. Thickety is the story of a witch who grows up in an anti-witch cult. It is an engaging piece, and I will listen to the next book in the series. The only problem is the narration. The narrator reads the entire book as if it is a movie trailer and every sentence is the cliffhanger. It is unbelievably annoying. In addition, her small adult's voice (a.k.a. kid's voice) is uninspired, flat, and uninteresting.

Anti-witch cult

This is certainly a well-crafted, imaginative, and captivating story. However, I was shocked that a children’s story, especially one featuring a 12 year old, would contain so much disturbing cruelty and violence. The violence was cruelty were not just limited to pivotal moments but sprinkled throughout. Much as I enjoyed other elements of the story, this tender-hearted adult will not be competing the series.

I'm curious as to where this story goes from here...the next book will tell me if I truly like it or not.

Oh, this book was pretty good a little slow to start, but very good. I seen reviews talking about the woman narrating the story. Didn’t have a good voice and her character voices were flat? I just agree wholeheartedly. She did a very good job. There was a cliffhanger at the end that I did not like but it’s a series so it’s to be expected.

Good book ‘
