"fantastic Ancient Druid Britannia romantic fantasy"
In 130 AD Britannia, someone is bringing a veil of
darkness over the island. Few, if any, have the skills to
prevent this unknown sorcerer from succeeding; of those
who might succeed, none seem willing to try. Owein remains trapped inside a self exiled wall of griefe
caused by guilt over his wife's death. He welcomes the
darkness with the only light he allows in being a vision
of a Roman woman whom he desires. When that female Clara
appears in person, Owein battles himself over wanting her
and wanting her to leave. She pleads with him to help her
dying father by regaining the Holy Grail so that her dad
can sip its healing liquid. Though hesitant to leave his
shelter, the hermit agrees to fulfill her request, not
realizing that if the Druid Celts and the legions of Rome
fail to unite, the darkness will engulf them both. THE GRAIL KING is a fantastic Ancient Druid Britannia
romantic fantasy from the moment that a bewildered Owein's
vision turns from all blood to the siren and never slows
down until the final altercation. Owein is a champion who
struggles with the demands placed on him including that of
love while Clara proves she has a spine of steel. Readers
will follow their escapades wondering whether Kernunnos
the Horned God, some other deity, a druid or another enemy
has invaded his isolated bleak mountains as the lead
couple finds strength in their love for one another.
Readers will sing joy to the world for this superior tale. Harriet Klausner

SummaryThe Holy Grail of legend unites a Druid hermit and the
daughter of his Roman enemy in The Grail King...
THE SACRED ISLE
All who dwelt in Avalon possessed the powers of the Old
Ones. But only some were Keepers of the Light. One among
them had darded to call upon the Deep Magic, conjuring a
dark storm that boded ill for the people of Britannia...
OWEIN
The vision came upon him suddenly: a delicate Roman beauty
materializing out of the swirling whiteness of the snow. Her
appearance near his ruined Celtic village made no sense, but
when the trance left him, she remained, demanding that he
use his Sight to help her find a stolen grail. The last
thing he intended was to use his gifts for the good of his
enemy, yet something told him this innocent lass had the
power to touch him, to bring warmth where there had only
been coldness, and to heal his wounded heart.
