The Green Man: Lynn Abbey

Book II of Unicorn and Dragon. The long bitter winter has at last lifted from the tortured English countryside but with the spring comes the shattering of the kingdom. The old king has died and the wolves are gathering round his empty throne with greed in their eyes - and their armies are at the ready. The ancient gods of the Cymry wait, for the time is coming when a new hero will be chosen and his blood will make the land whole once more. Alison Hafwynder, the witch, last High Priestess of Avalon and her foster-sister Wildecent - whose own mystical powers lie hidden within - are caught up in the games of gods and men. Now, in 11th century England, the Old Gods will make their last stand... Illustrations by Robert Gould. Cover art by Mike Posen.
