Avalon Rising Series by Sonya Bateman
Avalon Rising #1
The Cursing Stones
Sonya Bateman
Home is where the monsters are.
Rhiannon ‘Rain’
Finlay sucks at being a druid. Her gift of communicating with animals works
just fine, but she doesn’t know a Thurisaz rune from a Wunjo, and she can’t
even cast a circle of protection without a cheat sheet. That’s why she decided
to leave her tiny village on the Isle of Parthas, North Sea, for a normal non-magic
life halfway around the world.
But when her
beloved grandfather disappears along with a handful of villagers, she’s forced
to return home and use her gift — and her crappy druid magic — to help them. Unfortunately,
she’s not exactly prepared to face the very real monsters that are popping up
all over, from mutant spiders to banshees, black dogs … and worse.
That’s when she
learns all the crazy stories her father told her growing up, about the old
deserted castle on the island having belonged to King Arthur, might not be so
crazy after all.
The legends are
real. They’re returning to Parthas.
And they have
unfinished business with Rain Finlay.
