Synopsis

Enthralling sequel to The Weirdstone of Brisingamen.

It is the Eve of Gomrath – the night of the year when the Old Magic is aroused. Had Colin and Susan known this, they would never have lighted a fire on the Beacon, thereby releasing the uncontrollable ferocity of the Wild Hunt. Soon they are inextricably caught up in the struggle between their friend, the Wizard Cadellin, and the evil Morrigan.

The strength of their courage will determine whether or not they survive the awaiting ordeal...

About this title

Review:

Critical acclaim from 1963: "It is not only powerful but remarkably sophisticated." The Guardian "Weird and marvellously evocative tale of Celtic mysteries, elves, spirits and strange presences felt, mingled to make high adventure for Colin and Susan -- and peril for Susan. It is a timeless story, full of wonder and magic, terror and beauty. A fine author indeed, and perhaps one of a new generation of classics." Books and Bookmen

From the Back Cover:

Read by Robert Powell

"Who now brings fire to the mound at the Eve of Gomrath?"

The forces of evil are preparing for battle as the Old Magic is aroused once more. Elves and dwarfs gather at the caves of Fundindelve, home of the Wizard Cadellin, to seek council for the coming struggle.

But Colin and Susan find that they too are in danger from the dark magic – and for Susan the battle is most important of all.

'The Moon of Gomrath' is the enthralling sequel to 'The Weirdstone of Brisingamen.'
