The Battle is O'er: The story begins
The Battle is O'er
Book Five of The Blue Bells Chronicles
Prologue
The explosion of
thunder—rare in winter—drew Niall’s eyes up from prayer just as
lightning flashed across the rose window. It lit the statue of Mary
and danced across the polished backs of the pews in the small chapel
and disappeared, leaving Niall, Hugh, and the Laird once more in only
the flickering light of candles.
A chill shot down
Niall’s spine. It was only the chill of the long ride, he told
himself. But his eyes locked on the statue. The air wavered before
her. Voices cut the silence—a deep, angry voice, and a rasping
elderly one, that seemed to laugh.

ReplyDeleteScotland sounds nice
ReplyDeleteI have loved every trip I've taken there!
DeleteBoth of my parents' families have Celtic roots with my maternal ancestors coming from Northern Ireland, and my paternal ancestors being members of Clan MacFarlane from Arrochar, Scotland. To be able to stand on the soil of my ancestors would fulfill one of my greatest dreams! I cannot wait to read the new book!
ReplyDeleteMy children's father is from Ireland (the Republic). My daughters have just returned from Christmas in Ireland. They are so happy to be able to visit family there. I hope that you get a chance to go to Scotland!
DeleteI would love to go visit some of those old castles in Scotland someday.
ReplyDeleteWe are starting to save now for a Scotland trip in the next few years... I can't wait to see as many old castles, old cities, old historic sites as I can!!
ReplyDeleteFantastic! Do you have some particular places in mind?
Deleteanywhere in Scotland
ReplyDeleteI have always wanted to go to scotland. I am not sure a whole lot about the area but when I lived in england it was always on my radar. People in england always talked about the area as picturesque and scenic but they are english as you would know it. I love castles and old ruins and a feeling of belonging to a distant past.
ReplyDeleteI've never been to Scotland, but I've always wanted to go.
ReplyDeleteI would love to go to Scotland! I doubt I ever will so I love reading about it!! Thanks for the nice giveaway!
