Description
Charlie is a novelist living and working in Marazion, Cornwall with his wife Annie. He once saved the world with the help of a 12th Century Scottish ghost called Nye. But that’s another story. And oh, whether he likes it or not he is “The Chosen One.” Charlie lives a quiet life trying to put the past behind him and likes nothing better than visiting the local coffee shop and chatting with his Cornish friend Myghal and being served cakes by Lyndsey.Out on a local clay mine tip searching for amethysts for Annie, his wife’s jewellery business they find a strange 12 sided box buried deep in the cloying white clay, later that evening they open the box to find a large amethyst. Inside the stone is a mark, it is the twelfth rune – Jeren. This discovery leads them on a frantic chase through the myths and legends of Cornwall, bringing them face to face with King Arthur’s killer – Modred, as they attempt to save the world from the predicted Armageddon.

Outstanding fantasy book by Rob Burton. I finished this book really quickly! I constantly wanted to know what happened next, the writing was great, and the plot moved along well. I will be checking out this author’s works for sure.
