Hag's Breath

A Collection of Witchcraft and Wickedness

By: S P Oldham

Narrated by: Paula Hines

A collection of short stories featuring witches, Hag's Breath reinvents this entity. If you are looking for the near-comical character that is the stalwart of children's fairy tales, then go elsewhere. These witches are the stuff of nightmares. True horror characters with dark souls and sinister intentions. Powerful women, whose presence in the world is sometimes to be feared, sometimes to be sought out—but always to be respected.

Woo hoo, Witchy Woman

Like Don Henly sang, S P Oldham held me spellbound in the night, by penning tales of horror and fright. When the witches come pray for the dawning of morning light, you will struggle, but lose the fight.

Damn if he weren't right.

SP Oldham collects a coven of crones that will shrivel your feet or turn you into a toad. Be warned, Glinda is nowhere to be seen in this collection. In fact, the Wicked Witch of the West comes off as just plain silly in comparison to the bloody beldames in this book. Savor it. as a book like this only comes along once in a great while.

Paula Hines casts a deadly spell with her vocals and you will be impressed with her depth and range.

My only complaint? The book is just over four hours long. I needed MOAR malicious misanthropic mothers, sisters, and daughters of the dark magic.

Great listen

I really enjoyed listening to these tales. I look forward to more from this author. The narrator did a great job with the reading.

Witchy Women Rule

It’s been forever since I checked out any books with witches as the primary characters. After listening to this beautiful beast, I will be seeking more witchy wickedness! Like your favorite band’s newest album, you won’t find a bad track anywhere in Sue’s collection. Each story is independent of the others and they all have their own unique feel. I’m so glad I gave this one a go and hope she continues to create wonderfully written tales like the ones found here. It goes without saying, but I will anyway. I highly recommend Hag’s Breath! I loved it!

Very Good !!!

I really enjoyed the story
you are transported into each story thanks to the Excellent Narration !!!
I Highly Recommend!!!

Witchy Women

This is a great collection of tales featuring witches. This isn't your Disney/cartoon witches, but the real thing! Each story is filled with horrific acts, sometimes committed by witches, sometimes by humans who are afraid of them. The author has done a good job in giving the reader a few scary-filled hours of witchcraft!

The narrator did a great job and her performance really added a lot to these tales. My only complaint (other than the fact that this collection is too short!) is that I wish there had been a pause between the stories. There wasn't enough of a break to even realize that the story had changed in most instances.

Nasty Old Hags

These are not watered down Disney witches. These are some old hags that you wouldn't want to cross. I enjoyed all the stories, and the narration was easy to understand.

Fun witchy experience

This book is a bit different from what I normally listen to but the stories are very entertaining and engaging!
