When Ravens Screamed Over Blood

By William Vaughan

Full of vivid imagery and compelling characters, this Tolkienesque fantasy novella is set in west Wales at the time of the Roman invasion of Britain. It is the story of a perfect prince who falls headlong into love, only to be laid low by the evil forces of prejudice and imperialism. Though loosely based on the Mabinogion and Irish mythology, it contains some magic and violence. Ages 13+ "Vaughan reworks legends from the early Welsh tales of the Mabinogion and Irish mythology into a powerful novella. The rich language, evocative of folklore, will appeal to readers who enjoy Celtic mythology and storytelling such as Daniel Morden's Dark Tales from the Woods (2006). As raw as its title."--Kirkus Reviews
