About this audiobook
When retired witch Hester Peppin offers a digestive biscuit to a shivering demonic goat on her doorstep, she doesn't expect to end up magically bound to him for life. But in the sleepy village of Whimble-on-the-Wold, even the most innocent acts of kindness can have supernatural consequences.
Bugs (formerly Junior Tempter Class-C, Seventh Circle Administrative District) just wants to belong somewhere. Hester just wants to tend her prize roses in peace. Instead, they find themselves navigating infernal bureaucracy, nosy neighbors, and the suspicions of the village when Bugs' chaotic magic results in talking plants and teacake imps.
As the Ministry of Magical Affairs threatens to dissolve their accidental partnership, Hester and Bugs discover that something ancient and malevolent stirs beneath the village—something that has been feeding on Hester's fear and isolation for twenty years. With the help of unlikely allies including Hester's nemesis Millicent Parble, they must forge a true partnership to save Whimble-on-the-Wold from an ancient evil.
Warm, witty, and wonderfully British, "How to Train Your Demonic Goat" is a charming tale of found family, second chances, and the magic of belonging.
