This story is set in Bronze Age Britain, somewhere between 2,000 BC and 600BC.Its is about the youth Karne,his sister Kyra and Fern, a child of nature.They thwart the plans of the evil magician priest Wardyke to take over their tribe.Kyra has psychic experiences and they travel south to the sun temples where she trains as a priestess.After many adventures the story culminates with the defeat of the terrible Groth, dark god of chaos.This book gives a plausible account of the use of ancient standing stones.They were built at earth power centres and could aid psychic experiences such as astral travel, in this case undertaken by Kyra and other priests.It is a believable depiction of life in ancient times and fans of Tolkien,Zimmer Bradley, etc. are sure to like it.
