Summary

Apocalypse now?

Geryon Wynter, the brilliant Elizabethan mystic, has achieved resurrection and returned to present-day Rotherweird. But after the chaos of Election Day, how can a stranger from another time wrest control? And for what fell purpose is Wynter back?

His dark conspiracy reaches its climax in this unique corner of England, where the study of history is forbidden and neither friend nor foe are quite what they seem.

The stakes could not be higher, for at the endgame, not only Rotherweird is under threat. The future of mankind itself hangs in the balance.

Excellent trilogy

I was so glad I persevered in getting to grips with all the characters. A brilliant listen, which I enjoyed thoroughly.

Oddly enthralling

A weird world that I will sorely miss. A genre busting romp with wonderful characters.

Good but was expecting something much darker

I loved the first two books and was looking forward to a really dark and disturbing section before getting to the part where the good guys save the day. It wasn't anywhere as dark as I hoped for and even after a couple of listens I'm not entirely convinced I understand some parts of the story (or that parts of the story make sense). Still it is a good story.

Enthralling

Just listened to all three books, back to back. I will do so again, to get the bits I missed.

Secrets have the power to restore or destroy.

A medieval and mythical challenge for power leads to the ultimate challenge which way will the stones fall?

Exceptional escapism. SECOND LISTEN

I am genuinely sad to have completed this trilogy. This book was beautifully written as were it's predecessors. The narrator was fantastic. I know I will tune back in to this weird and wonderful tale again. and... again So I revisited this series again. Brilliant!
