“In "Within the Shadow of Stone," Bree and her people, the Skye, live in the age of standing stones and their worship. The land they live in is dying, because the worship of the stones has been neglected and forgotten. Bree must go on a perilous journey to find the cause of the death and decay of their land, to reverse it before it's too late. Along the way she's thwarted by enemies wanting to rule the world without faith, and she's helped by the spirit of an ancient warrior, trapped forever in one of the stone monoliths.
This is a fabulous, absorbing story of ancient cultures and ancient religions, of a time when magic ruled the world and faith was necessary to survive. Bree is a strong heroine and her stone-bound warrior is to die for. Don't miss this story, you'll love it!”
