About this listen
Every year, on the winter solstice, the small town of Melcombe observes an annual custom, the roots and meaning of which are lost in the mists of time. A torch-lit procession to the ancient tomb of Cairndale Knapp, overlooking the town, puts the old sun to bed, and greets the new sun in the morning, restoring balance to the year.
This year, however, Mr Sam Notice has bought the Knapp, and has set about landscaping it. And, with the felling of an ancient yew tree, the roots and meaning of the old custom spring malevolently to life, as the Winter Queen is finally released from her prison, and bent on revenge.
Told over the two days of the winter solstice - Pilgrim walks again between the worlds of magick and of men.

Excellent addition to previous series
I was hoping for a new full series but this special short series will do. Currently listening again to the first four series, excellent inclusion of British with genuinely scary "fairies", excellent writing and the acting is first rate, really brings it all to life.

Another wonderful story
Loved it. So good to have another Pilgrim tale that is as good as the rest. I do hope there will be more soon. Marvellous cast, brilliant voices and Paul Hilton has the best voice for William Palmer

Evocative Winter Listening
You can’t got wrong with anything by SB. I will say, the effort to find the exact fit of characterisations is reflected in the absolute perfection and talent of players….Paul Hilton….voice is just perfect, pitch, timbre, depth…otherworldly quality … I’m in love with Pilgrim if you haven’t already noticed 🤣 quality quality quality ❤️❤️❤️

Pilgrim and the Grey Folk
Glad to find that we haven’t heard the last of Pilgrim. Sebastian Baczkiewicz creation of the Grey-folk world interaction through Pilgrim with modern world is a classical never ending story. Paul Hilton’s portrayal of William Palmer makes Pilgrim and the Grey-folk world even more believable and long may he and Sebastian have success and fulfilment from these stories.

Wonderful
I've enjoyed listening to all the stories of Pilgrim. First, on the radio, and repeatedly on Audiobooks. Well written, atmospheric - the Foley department are to be applauded, not enough is said about Foley Art in general.
Highly recomended if you enjoy 'real world' fantasy.
