When a meteorite plunges deep into the heart of Celtica,
the blinding flash turns night into day and the impact flattens miles of countryside. A great sword is forged from the sky
stone that is prophesized to shape the destinies of future generations. Warrior chiefs and scheming Druids vie for ownership
of the wondrous blade, cutting a trail of blood and murder across the ancient Celtic World.
It falls on Eoan, a mere
boy on the edge of manhood, to embark on a quest, against insurmountable odds, to retrieve the sword and rescue his love from
the sacrificial fires of Belenus. Pitted against Cimbri mercenaries and ruthless warlords, he races to save Roisin. Beguiled
by her mesmeric beauty, he is not even sure that she loves him in return; he only knows the path of the sword’s destiny
runs through his heart.

“Fires
of Belenus” is a romantic tale, that tantalizes readers with rational portrayals
of mythical events found in the Cú Chulainn and Arthurian legends. The Sword in the Stone, Lady of Lake, and Cú Chulainn’s
stand at the river ford are brought to life in plausible new ways that make the work unique. It is a tale of Historical Fantasy,
made believable by accurately portraying ancient Celtic culture.
A thousand years before the
Romans, Celtic people cultivated the Rhone
Valley. Celtic languages were spoken from Asia Minor to
Spain and from Northern Italy to Ireland.
By the third century BC, their culture had evolved into a complex civilization with sophisticated social structures, laws,
and folklore that are the roots of modern European culture. But the Celtic world was a violent world, controlled by mystical
Druids and warrior chieftains, ready to take the heads of their rivals over the most trifling insult.
