A dark fantasy/ horror novel set in the real world.
There is a war coming, visceral, bloody and damaging. The Morrigan sits upon a crumbling stone wall and knows that more blood will be spilled here. Soon. A man goes hill walking just to enjoy the beauty of the Scottish Highlands and happens upon a ruined hill fort that no one has seen in an age. The relic was once the scene of an ancient battle, a battle that rages still, unseen, between Celtic and demonic forces, magical and mystical and it is about to reach its unholy end. Rob, the aesthete, the fool, the romantic dreamer, is about to get drawn into the strangest of worlds.
Professional Reviews
Dark, Dramatic and Daunting
I have often given Raymond Walker great book reviews and I do not regret a single one but this book is stranger, still, than many of his other books. A walk into the Scot's Highlands, a lost civilization. Eagle feathers and demonic personages take centre stage.
A true fantasy coupled with a beautiful sadness that infuses all the characters. He deserves a good review once again even if I am surprised by the subject matter. Marsha Main. Poetry monthly
A wondrous setting for a dark tale.
This book starts like a hill walkers and historians view of paradise but do not grow complacent, this is not a tour guide, rather it is part history and fantasy, both combining in something new that I have rarely read before. Mr Walker is telling stories within stories and ignoring the age old writing convention of "show not tell" This story is told as someone would relate it to you in a pub, a restaurant, a park. Each and every character tells their tale as a personal thought. Strange and refreshing, different, diabolical also very, very good. Matt Schlammer . Countrywide Magazine.
Be warned, this is not a travelogue.
What else can I say but "Wow". I thought that I was reading a guide book to the Scottish Highland's and then it hit. Weird and wonderful, I could not stop this mad travelogue until I was in tears.
