~ (NOTE: this
release is somewhat in question. Rodney Mathews completed a series of eight paintings
for the “Witch World” series and attributes one of his paintings to this title.
The titles “Witch World”, “Web of the Witch World” and “Three Against the Witch World” published by Universal have the
same 10 digit ISBN as the Tandem releases of 1970, so I assigned this ISBN to
this edition. However none of the Andre Norton Collectors that I have conversed
with have ever seen or heard of this release.)

Synopsis ~
Kaththea is wooed
by the fair-seeming Dinzil, who is actually a
creature of the Great Dark Ones. She who was once a powerful witch is rescued
by her brother, Kemoc, but because of her
near-alliance with the Dark, she is stripped of her magic. No longer can she
communicate mind-to-mind with her brothers, nor perform the simplest spell of
healing.
