Rise of the Ancients - a novel

Starting a few days after the battle of Culloden in 1747, this book follows the fortunes and experiences of a young Scot called Ewan thrown upon uncertain times along with his mum, after his dad and brothers fell at the battle. The tale follows Ewan as he tackles untold trials and tribulations, as he learns the lessons he must to survive and which he was destined to use as he heads unwittingly towards a prophecy that he was destined to fulfil, a prophecy that foretold the awakeningof the Fingalians, the Ancients, under his leadership. Whom Ewan has to unite in order to use their combined power to aid the clans during this time of distress, A distress not from the feeble greed’s and needs of man, but rather from those who lead and posses them. Those of a higher unearthly evil who relish and bloat on the souls of all men, women and children of the Highlands, But first Ewan must tackle untold beast and foul creatures before he can Raise the Ancients.
