Last Apprentice: Revenge of the Witch is the first book in Joseph Delaney's popular young adult fantasy series, The Wardstone Chronicles. Published in 2004, this novel sets the stage for exciting adventures filled with witches, apprentices, and dark magic. The story follows the journey of Tom Ward, a 12-year-old boy who becomes the apprentice of the spook or exorcist in his village. The spook's job is to protect the local community from supernatural creatures and dark forces. As Tom begins his training, he learns about the dangers and complexities of hunting witches, boggarts, and other malevolent entities that threaten the human world. One of the main antagonists in the novel is a powerful witch, Mother Malkin, who was previously imprisoned by the spook.

Contemporary accounts during the Early Modern period were noted in treatises and pamphlets which could have been read by Witchfinders peddling their trade throughout the country, spreading the ideas and leading questions they would focus on during interrogation of suspected witches. Pretty much all confessions were extracted under torture, which obviously completely negates their veracity, and also calls into disrepute the similarities between the accused’s statements.

He was expelled from Innsbruck in 1484 after attempting to prosecute witches there and seemingly being obsessed by the sexual habits of the accused, and it has been suggested that he wrote the book out of self-justification and revenge. References to ointments that make you fly, literally getting high, go as far back as Homer s Iliad from around 800 BCE, when the Greek goddess Hera used an ambrosia ointment to fly to Olympus.

One of the main antagonists in the novel is a powerful witch, Mother Malkin, who was previously imprisoned by the spook. However, on the night of a full moon, Mother Malkin escapes and seeks revenge on those who put her away. Tom finds himself at the center of this conflict as he becomes entangled in a terrifying battle against the vengeful witch.
