When young Tamwyn, determined to solve the mystery of the vanishing stars, seeks a vision in the mountains, he is confronted by a vision he never expected: From the place of the stars, dark shadows, omens of evil, are pouring out toward Avalon, posing a threat to the Great Tree s very existence. Tamwyn and his loyal troupe must split up: Elli to rush to the Lady of the Lake, Scree to heal with the Eaglefolks, and Tamwyn to journey to the Heartwood of Avalon itself to discover the portal to the highest branches and confront the very powers of Darkness."
This is a wonderful first book to the trilogy of The Great Tree of Avalon. I have purchased the second book and can't wait to read it. I bought this book for my son because the author was at a conference I was attending and signing autographs. I thought an autographed book would be a unique gift. My son read it and loved it so I decided to read it also. I was immediately drawn into the story and could identify with the characters. I was kept guessing until the end whether Tam was the heir of Merlin or the child of the dark prophesy. Will he be able to change what is prophesied, as the Lady of the Lake told him? Will he be able to save Avalon? I can't wait to read the next book to find out what is in store for Tam.
