Reviewed by: The Last Apprentice: Curse of the Bane Deborah Stevenson Delaney, Joseph The Last Apprentice: Curse of the Bane; illus. by Patrick Arrasmith. Greenwillow, 2006467p Library ed. ISBN 0-06-076622-0$17.89 Trade ed. ISBN 0-06-076621-2$16.99 R Gr. 5-8 In The Last Apprentice: Revenge of the Witch (BCCB 10/05), Thomas took up his position as apprentice to Mr. Gregory, known in the community as "the spook" for his trade of seeing off ghosts, ghasts, boggarts, and witches. Upon the death of his brother, a priest whose condemnation of the spook's trade led to long estrangement between the two, Mr. Gregory must travel to Priestown for the funeral. Thomas must travel with him, because the spook has another reason for travel to Priestown: the settling of unfinished business with a former god, now turned evil spirit, known as the Bane. In Priestown the two become swept up in the persecution of the feared Quisitor, who rounds up and executes people on suspicion of witchcraft, aided by his followers amid the clergy; when Thomas finds that his friend Alice and Mr. Gregory have both been seized and sentenced to death, he determines to save them and to join Mr. Gregory in fighting the Bane. The plot is a little more labyrinthine in this sequel, and the pace consequently meanders a bit as well, but Delaney continues to create a convincing world in this agrarian England-like country where fighting supernatural evils is just another skilled trade. [End Page 119] The stakes are higher in this outing, with considerably more gruesomely violent fates for victims of both human and supernatural depredations; there's more than gore here, though, with tense and suspenseful questions surrounding Alice's loyalty (she's a witch who's willingly dealing with the Bane with the ambitious intention of overpowering it) and Thomas' willingness to sacrifice himself for the cause and for his friends (some new and tantalizing revelations about his mother's supernaturally touched history hint at more plot developments to come on the family side as well). Readers are better off starting with the first title, but fans of the young apprentice will relish the chance to see him expand in his powers and face off with more evil things that go bump in the night.
