The Paradise War

From the front flap of the Lion first edition: "Wolves prowling the streets of Oxford. A Green Man haunting the Highlands... Lewis Gillies is face to face with an ancient mystery. Drawn from the ivory towers of Oxford to the misty moors and glens of Scotland, Lewis expects little more than a pleasant weekend away. But the road north leads to a mystical crossroads, and he finds himself in a place where two worlds meet, in the time-between-times. The ancient Celts admitted no separation between this world and the Otherworld: the two were delicately interwoven, each dependent upon the othr. In The Paradise War this balance is disturbed - a breach has opened between the worlds, and cosmic catastrophe threatens. The Paradise War is the first book in Stephen Lawhead's epic series, Song of Albion. As in The Pendragon Cycle, Lawhead mines the rich vein of Celtic mythology, giving us a fresh look at what is, and what may be."
