"A Fantasy based on reality set in an explorable area of West Wales
" A series of 5 books, chronicling the epic adventures of the
Tylwyth Teg, situated in a beautiful corner of West Wales, Great
Britain beginning in the year 1303. The story is set within their
ancient 'Triad Kingdom' in a scenic, mountain and coastline area by
the Irish Sea. The tale itself is about the struggles between the
forces of light represented by the Efengyl Knights, in their quest
to find the Royal Stones of the lost Crown of Golau, and the Dark
Lord Pruddydrwgner. Only when the Crown is complete can the true
king be known and the Royal Race of the Brenhindod be
re-established to fight the evil forces of the Dark Lord in his
underworld of Annwn Uffern on equal terms ... only then. ... This
first book describes the plight of four young orphans possessing
strange powers, brought up in different towers of Trefdraeth
Castle. With their loyal companions they meet together under the
guidance of Pelydryn, the ancient sorcerer, and Arianwyn, the grim
master mariner and explorer from Erin across the sea, to begin the
quest for their true identities ... and the Royal Stones of Sorcery
... "When inquisitive Nomis, a pubescent apprentice herb-lore
physician, realises why his parents abandoned him at birth, amid
the terrifying threat encroaching on the cosy world of Trefdraeth
Castle, he decides it is time to begin a new life with a new
master. Little does he suspect that it is his own strange, but
growing, powers of sorcery and those of his new found friends, that
are attracting the evil necromancers from the darkest regions of
the underworld. His new master, a mysterious immortal sorcerer,
becomes their protector and guide through many adventures, forcing
them all to come to terms with their emerging powers and associated
responsibilities that culminate to become the instruments of the
ancient prophecies, which will dramatically shape their
unsuspecting world." There is mystery, nobility, integrity, humour,
darkness, and violence, as well as interesting beings,
well-developed and deep characters with good dialogue. Coupled with
themes of the paranormal and obscure laws of nature, it is a very
fascinating, page-turning read. The adventure is made unique in
that the area in which their dangerous quest takes place is totally
real. The author has used present day marked footpaths and many of
the local historical monuments and features of interest. The
narrative explores the ecology of the differing environments the
questors pass through, that range from high mountain moorland to
river and woodland scenery; from river estuary marshlands,
sand-dunes and sandy beach to sheer rocky cliffs and finally to the
sea. All the action takes place within a walking radius of the
author's former castle home overlooking this extraordinary stretch
of Welsh coastline The books are further made exceptional by the
amount of 'living magic, ' obscure 'laws of nature' and hitherto
'unexplained phenomena' that is woven into the tale. The author has
made available many of the 'secrets' and 'revelations' she has come
across in her extraordinary life, which she feels are valuable
knowledge for today's discerning person, as we move forward in the
Third Millennium.
