Product Description

A mysterious bog that eventually spits things out, killer bees and the women who tend them, a little boy chasing 'fiery flies' and 'foxes on fire' in the woods one dusky evening …what do all of these have in common? You will meet them all in her new book"The Legends of Nevermore County".

See what the people in these stories have to say about this whole thing in the "Nevermore County Gazette"



About the Author

I live in Virginia, have blue eyes, and am owned by a possessive cat. I find animal behavior and the human condition fascinating. Writing is a way of life and I write because I cannot help it, trying to paint my mind pictures in words for others to see.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Fun Read, January 12, 2006
Legends of Nevermore County could be anywhere in the world. Ms. Bradford has captured the essence of small towns and the sometimes odd people that live there. I will always remember Mother Goody as
the person who can always fix things that just don't go right. I also think that Summer Island has the potential for a great movie.

5.0 out of 5 stars Let your imagination take you there - a homecoming with a twist, January 31, 2006
Enticing short stories in the Fantasy realm. Sounds like a place I know and would like to return to. Ms. Bradford does a fine job creating her characters. They take on a life of their own as is demonstrated on the website of The Nevermore County Gazette. "Summer's Island" sounds like a movie in the making. Are there sequels in the works, I hope?

5.0 out of 5 stars A very real trip into make-believe., January 13, 2006
"The Legends Of Nevermore County" is trip to a secret place not so far away. In fact it is strangely familiar. There are deep secrets, hidden agendas, dark and light happenings all seemingly connected to mist, a tree, and a mountain. We start with a natural disaster understood by cows but no one else, that ends in the strange transformation of many creatures. We are introduced to a woman who longs for travel, but waits at home the rest of her life for her ride to arrive. Young Klee, who falls in love with a tree. We sit on the floor watching TV eating Mrs. Winston's wonderful doughnuts. We run into Mother Goody a healer and herbalist that we all wish we had living in our neighborhood. The mysterious Rainbow Weavers live here in Neever's Knob beside the river, grazing their sheep in the surrounding highlands, and exercising their strange weaving rituals. There is the story of a young boy and his coming of age, I reflected on my own personal experiences while looking through his young eyes. Then there is the magic honey from Summer Island that can cure most any ailment, and the secrets of the women who harvest it.

This part of Nevermore County, connected solely to the rest of the world by two small bridges across the Noname River, is a magical place, almost like the "Waltons" placed in the "Twilight Zone". But Ms. Bradford makes us believe, as she reports on the secret lives and experiences of the families who have lived there for generations. She has managed to bring me back to the child watching TV on a Sunday night. Mary Martin as Peter Pan was pleading with me to believe in fairies to save poor Tinkerbelle's life from Hook's poison. Right then, as I clapped my hands until they hurt, I believed, as I have never believed before. Adelle, I believe in Nevermore County and want to read more.

1.0 out of 5 stars Definitely a Pass
I can't recommend this novel. It's stuck somewhere between being for kids and being for adults and doesn't know what to do with itself. Read more
