Book description
After a long journey across the ages, Jack Churchill has returned to
the modern world, only to find it in the grip of a terrible, dark force.
The population is unaware, mesmerised by the Mundane Spell that keeps
them in thrall. With a small group of trusted allies, Jack sets out to
find the two 'keys' that can shatter the spell. But the keys are people
- one with the power of creation, one the power of destruction - and
they are hidden somewhere among the world's billions. As the search fans
out across the globe, ancient powers begin to stir. In the bleak North,
in Egypt, in Greece, in all the Great Dominions, the old gods are
returning to stake their claim. The odds appear insurmountable, the need
desperate . . . This is a time for heroes. Mark Chadbourn was raised
in the mining communities of South Derbyshire. He studied Economic
History at Leeds before becoming a national newspaper journalist. He is
the author of several novels, including The Age of Misrule and The Dark
Age trilogies.
