My 1976 hardcover copy of Anne’s first work, which sadly I’ve never read before. I have seen the movie a few times though.
I decided to pick it up this week after I enjoyed her latest, The Wolf Gift, so much.
I’m really enjoying it, and the differences between the book and the movie are always a nice surprise.
Full review to follow…

Ooh, I envy you, reading it for the first time. I picked it up in the late ’80s, in Ireland, from the college library as I recall (!), and loved that book. Then I read all of her other stuff but stopped when she got to the Lasher/Witches stage.
I remember that first book giving me chills. I’d never read anything like it.
P.S. Your copy might actually be valuable now.
I’m really enjoying it so far. It’s been many years since I saw the movie, so it has been a “new” reading experience for me. I tried many years ago to read Witching Hour but I gave up. I just don’t think I was an experienced and mature enough reader to enjoy it back then. I plan to eventually try again.
