In this episode, I talk about my response to the Druid Twilight series by Gerry Starnes. My chat with him is up next. For more information about the series and Gerry, please see the show notes for Episode 3.
Druid Twilight: The Loom of Destiny is an epic journey to first century Ancient Britain, a fictional story set in a pivotal historic time. The key characters, Caedwyn and Brianna, each with long Druidic ancestry, are at the center of a re-awakening of ancient powers that some believe will result in an apocalyptic catastrophe for the world.
Druid Twilight is an allegorical tale of our times: an age of transition in which ancient powers clash with the emergence of a new way, a new system of beliefs that may either engulf the archaic ways or force their unexpected expansion. Nature, the elements, and even time itself is at play in this intense shamanic narrative.
A love story at heart, Druid Twilight: The Loom of Destiny is a tale of the clash of enormous powers, of betrayal, retribution, and rebirth. This updated version has additional content and resources.
Book Two of Druid Twilight: The Loom of Destiny continues the epic journey to first century Ancient Britain, a fictional story set in a pivotal historic time. The key characters, Caedwyn and Brianna, each with long Druidic ancestry, are at the center of a re-awakening of ancient powers that some believe will result in an apocalyptic catastrophe for the world.
In Book Two, the death of King Prasutagus ignites a flame of betrayal that will burn through the lands. Untested Druidic leaders and warriors face the most powerful army in the world. For the Romans, the outcome of war on two fronts will set the momentum of the future of Britain, and indeed, the rest of the world. And within this military and political struggle lies the personal stories of Caedwyn and Brianna, their companions, and the Elders who continue to struggle with their responsibilities of the present and for the future.
The Druid Twilight saga, which began with Loom of Destiny, continues in the fourth book, Destiny Unbound. The Orders – the Druid Brothers and Semnotheoi Sisters – are in danger of unraveling under the unrelenting pressure of the Roman oppression and their search for the three foreigners. Now, there seems to be nowhere to run. The only hope appears to be in defying the edicts that the Orders never work the magics together again. Betrayal upon betrayal now threatens the Orders, even as the Roman armies themselves struggle to maintain order. The power and authority of the Governor is also threatened from within the armies and the whole of Britain wavers on the brink of chaos.
Druid Twilight: Awakening is the second installment in the Druid Twilight series. A fictional story set in a pivotal historic time, Druid Twilight: Awakening is an epic journey to first-century Roman Britain. The Roman legions have put down the Revolution and driven the Druid Orders into the shadows. Uniting the two Orders—Druid and Semnotheoi—is the only way to survival. Yet, the edicts of centuries past warn against such cooperation, demanding that they never combine the magics again. In the midst of the ensuing chaos, a new power is arising from far to the east. Its emissary arrives at the port of Londinium, and a new destiny is about to be written for all time.
