Tales of Alderly

When Colin and Susan are pursued by eerie creatures across Alderley Edge, the Wizard - Cadellin Silverbrow - takes them to safety deep in the caves of Fundindelve. Here he watches over the enchanted sleep of one hundred and forty knights, waiting the fated hour when they must rise and fight.

Alan Garner's exciting and atmospheric tale of magic and evil which began with The Weirdstone of Brisingamen continues with this book. Colin and Susan are not safe from the evil Morrigan and once more find themselves back in Fundindelve with the wizard Cadellin.

Boneland is Alan Garner's continuation of the story thread which began in his first and enduringly popular fantasy children's novel, The Weirdstone of Brisingamen, published in 1960. The Moon of Gomrath followed in 1963 taking the story further with the same two children, Colin and Susan. Boneland follows its main proponent, Colin, into adulthood as he continues his search for his lost sister, whose voice he hears calling to him from the heavens.
