Shadows from a Time Long Past - front coverThe stranger, to whose aid Nerian comes, is young, beautiful and mysterious. Why is she so insistent he accept the gift of a Crook? It is a decision he soon regrets for he finds himself the target of a manhunt by the forces of the merciless Lord Sigeberht. But, instead of saving himself, why is Nerian risking his life to return the object?

Held captive within the tyrant's castle, Naomi, the Crook's Guardian, awaits her opportunity to escape. As Lord Sigeberht fails in his attempts to obtain the object, external forces take control of his mind, driving him blindly towards disaster.  

While Nerian desperately seeks Naomi, unknown to him the Keeper of the Gauntlet also is making his way towards her. What links the Gauntlet and the Crook and why are the games played by Naomi in her childhood important? Released from confinement, Shadows of evil begin to spread across the land. What is the significance of Gabrielle, the Keeper's kidnapped daughter? As a weapon against the forces of evil, the innocence of a child should never be underestimated.

Brian Russell Hill's Shadows from a Time Long Past is an action-packed story that will keep the reader absorbed from the first page to the last. It is filled with memorable characters such as the devoted Almund, Keeper of the Gauntlet, who searches for Gabrielle, his kidnapped daughter; and young Nerian who is drawn into the conflict because of a chance encounter with Naomi, the Guardian of the Crook. The merciless Lord Sigeberht seeks not only the Crook but the Gauntlet because combining the two will grant him unimaginable power. Will he succeed?

Mr. Hill's rich settings, remarkable characters and well-crafted story make this a must read.
