How well do you know the life and works of Shakespeare? Take our quiz to find out!
Nydia Hetherington's Sycorax is a beautifully written and deeply moving imagining of the life lived by William Shakespeare's greatest witch before her banishment to the island in The Tempest.
Ahead of Shakespeare's birthday on 23rd April, we invited Nydia to test your knowledge of the Bard.
Sycorax by Nydia Hetherington
Born of the sun and moon, shaped by fire and malady, comes a young woman whose story has never been told...
They call her Sycorax. Seer. Sage. Sorceress.
Outcast by society and all alone in the world, Sycorax must find a way to understand her true nature. But as her powers begin to grow, so too do the suspicions of the local townspeople. For knowledge can be dangerous, and a woman’s knowledge is the most dangerous of all...
With a great storm brewing on the horizon, Sycorax finds herself in increasing peril – but will her powers save her, or will they spell the end for them all?
