In a series of disturbing and sometimes dangerous incidents, the children discover the whereabouts of the stolen grail, the Greenwitch - possessed of a dreadful, vengeful power - is called from the ocean depths by the Dark, and its Wild Magic is loosed over the land. Yet, because of Jane's pity, the Greenwitch makes to her a strange gift, for a time at least, will keep the Dark from rising.
Greenwitch is the third of five books in Susan Cooper's memorable sequence, The Dark is Rising. Its central theme, supported by legends from the myth-haunted West Country of England, is that of unpredictable Wild Magic of the earth, "a force neither of the Dark nor the Light nor of men." - Book Jacket
