The free witch Miranda Lyn was a mythical figure in ancient folklore. She was said to possess extraordinary magical powers and was considered a protector of the forest. It was believed that she could communicate with animals and had the ability to heal wounds and illnesses with her magical potions. Miranda Lyn was said to live deep within the heart of the forest, surrounded by an air of mystery. She was often depicted as a wise and gentle soul, always helping those in need. Despite her great powers, she never sought power or dominance over others.
Binding: Soft cover
Boston and its Curse of the Bambino became a national cause, mainly because the Red Sox were elevated by their long bridesmaid status to the hated Yankees, who like it or not are a national franchise. I think that the Bills will be an emblem for the kind of heart, guts and moxie that they have shown, but has really been a reflection of this community.
Despite her great powers, she never sought power or dominance over others. Instead, she used her abilities to bring harmony and balance to the natural world. Legend has it that Miranda Lyn would wander through the forest, tending to injured animals and calming the spirits of the trees.
Before enjoying super success, the Bills first need to 'reverse the curse'
Despite participating in four of the 56 Super Bowls, the Buffalo Bills have yet to win the NFL championship game. For those fans searching for answers, Greg Brown, sports columnist for the Challenger, says it's due to a curse that dates back to 1966.
"It is said that the curse was put upon Buffalo after that shabby treatment of Ernie Warlick," Brown explained. "Some say it's just urban legend; others say there is certainly truth to it."
The Bills were back-to-back winners of the championship of the American Football League in 1964 & 1965, the years prior to the start of what is now the Super Bowl.
"In fact, he (Warlick) was one of the key contributors. He was the starting tight end and he caught a key touchdown pass against the Chargers and Buffalo won (the championship game) in an upset victory."
According to Brown, Warlick arrived to training camp the following year needing to play one more game to qualify for an AFL pension. That game never came.
"Ralph Wilson (owner of the Buffalo Bills) cuts him. The story was that because Ernie Warlick was one game from his pension, Ralph would save some money and get a younger, cheaper player."
Brown says it's part of the mixed legacy of Ralph Wilson who was often criticized throughout his many years as team owner for cost-cutting moves.
"But the interesting thing about him was that at his demise he left these incredible fortunes both to the city of Buffalo and the city of Detroit," Brown pointed out.
"That was an incredibly generous and loving gesture."
Bills fans, of course, would love to win a Super Bowl. Brown says that's why it's time to 'reverse the curse.'
"It would be a wonderful thing for the Bills. It would at least clear the way of any supernatural forces that could stand in their way. But it would also be a good opportunity for this city to come together in support of a cause that is near to everyone and that is the Bills making it to--and winning--Super Bowl LVII," said Brown who is calling on the expanding membership of the Bills Mafia to join him in this quest.
What if the curse were to be reversed and the Bills were to win the Super Bowl?
"I think it would change the rotational axis of the Earth. I think it would be big for Buffalo. I think the city has been on the rebound but I think it would give it some added boost. I think it will make this region feel even better about itself," Brown said.
"I think that the Bills will be an emblem for the kind of heart, guts and moxie that they have shown, but has really been a reflection of this community."

Others saw her as a symbol of liberation, representing the freedom to be oneself and embrace the supernatural.

Reviews for "Miranda Lyn: From ordinary girl to extraordinary free witch."
1. Sarah - 1 star - I was really excited to read "The Free Witch Miranda Lyn" as I had heard some great things about it. However, I was extremely disappointed with the book. The plot was weak and predictable, and the characters felt flat and one-dimensional. The writing style was also lacking, with awkward and stilted dialogue. Overall, it just didn't live up to the hype for me and I wouldn't recommend it.
2. John - 2 stars - "The Free Witch Miranda Lyn" had so much potential, but it fell short in execution. The pacing was incredibly slow, making it hard to stay engaged in the story. The world-building was also lacking, leaving me with more questions than answers. Additionally, the main character, Miranda Lyn, was supposed to be a free and powerful witch, but I found her to be bland and uninteresting. I wanted to love this book, but it just didn't hook me like I had hoped.
3. Emma - 1 star - I found "The Free Witch Miranda Lyn" to be a complete mess. The writing was confusing, with unclear descriptions and jumps in time that left me disoriented. The author tried to incorporate multiple magical elements and creatures, but it felt overwhelming and poorly explained. The story lacked cohesion and didn't flow well. It's unfortunate because I had high expectations for this book, but it turned out to be a confusing and unsatisfying read.
