The Witches of Winged-Horse Mountain — Sandra Forrester

Apprentice witch Beatrice Bailey and her friends are off on a brand-new adventure as they continue their effort to thwart the evil Dally Rumpe and reverse his magic spell. Traveling to the western part of the Witches' Sphere, Beatrice and her pals stay at a guest ranch at the foot of Winged-Horse Mountain. They visit a phantom rodeo with ghost cowboys and horses, then go to the ruby mines of Blood Mountain. While trying to break the spell, they explore the cave where Dally Rumpe once lived, and there they discover his book of evil spells. In this new adventure, Beatrice faces a difficult and frightening decision. She learns that good and evil aren't always as clearly defined as she'd once imagined. If she chooses an evil path, she can defeat Dally Rumpe; otherwise, she seems destined to fail. (Ages 10-14)
