Book description
'A sumptuous feast of fairytale, magic, dark gothic horror and romance'
The Times, The Hounds of Avalon are coming . . . For these are the
twilight days, when eternal winter falls and the gods destroy themselves
in civil war . . . when an invasion force of ghastly power threatens to
eradicate all life. Humanity's last chance lies with two friends, as
different as night and day, but bound together by an awesome destiny.
Hunter: a warrior, a rake, an assassin; Hal: a lowly records clerk in a
Government office. They must pierce a mystery surrounding the myths of
King Arthur to find the dreaming hero who will ride out of the mists of
legend to save the world. But time is running out, for when the Hounds
of Avalon appear, all hope is lost . . . HOUNDS OF AVALON is the latest
instalment in Mark Chadbourn's brilliant new sequence: exciting,
evocative, terrifying and awe-inspiring. 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.
