‘Ain’t No Witch: The Wanderings of Mama Lucy’ by John Linwood Grant

From the publisher of groundbreaking horror collections such as SLAY: Stories of the Vampire Noire, Blackened Roots: An Anthology of the Undead, and Black Magic Women comes a fantastic folklore and horror short story collection by John Linwood Grant, Ain’t No Witch: The Wanderings of Mama Lucy.

Mama Lucy, the title character, don’t suffer fools, she don’t take no sass, and she ain’t no witch. Call her hoodoo woman, conjure lady, root doctor, but call her right — you may have need of her.

From Georgia to Vermont, she travels a long road, facing the darkness and injustices of haint-ridden nineteen twenties America, silver dimes at her ankle and hoodoo at her side.

Lee Murray, a five-time Bram Stoker Award®-winning author of Grotesque: Monster Stories said, “Thick with milk-and-honey prose that draws you in, this book will rattle your bones with its devilment. Remember the name Mamma Lucy: a fierce heroine for any era.”

John Linwood Grant John Linwood lives in Yorkshire with a pack of lurchers and a beard. He may also have a family. When he’s not chronicling the adventures of Mr. Bubbles, the slightly psychotic pony, he writes a range of supernatural, horror and speculative tales, some of which are actually published. You can find him every week on greydogtales.com, often with his dogs.

Ain’t No Witch: The Wanderings of Mama Lucy  is available online through the Mocha Memoirs Press website, and at fine brick-and-mortar bookstores.
