Produktbeschreibung
Ancient British Folklore Reimagined in Verse Step into the world of the Fabled Gable, where Roman Britain's waning empire collides with myth, magic, and the timeless folklore of Britain. The Hollow Vale weaves lyrical poetry with Arthurian echoes, Cornish legends, and the sacred landscapes of Somerset and the West Country-spanning misty hills, sacred rivers, and ancient sites such as Stonehenge and Glastonbury Tor. Here, ancestral spirits stir, forgotten gods whisper, and old roads and standing stones become the stage for stories of memory, wonder, and enchantment. This collection, part of a five-volume Fabled Gable series, explores the journey of Caelwyn, the Bellbearer, whose dreams awaken the Deep Wyrd, the primeval current of magic that binds the land. From ritualised verse and the imagined Tharionese language to seasonal tales and haunting myths, these poems trace the fragile threads between history and imagination, loss and remembrance. Wander mist-shrouded moors, hear the toll of invisible bells, and encounter legendary creatures in a Britain that is as magical as it is eternal.
Autorenporträt
Alexander Paul Burton is a storyteller, composer, and quiet mapmaker of memory. Born in Britain and shaped by the hills, marshes, and merry lanes of Cornwall and Somerset, he grew up not with myths, but among them. His earliest influences were not dragons or swords, but the forgotten names on mile-markers, the ghosts in railway timetables, and the way mist clings to stone like something remembering itself.Now based in Toronto, Alexander continues to write across fictitious history and imagination. His fiction and music explore the borderlands between place and presence, between what is lost and what remains. He draws inspiration from etymology, folklore, and the small, resonant silences between people. His background in nonprofit and public sector work has shaped a lifelong belief: that stories are vessels, for grief, for joy, for remembering differently.His writing is steeped in the language of echoes, vethir anneth, the unspoken truths that dwell in silence, and guided by the mantra of the Daughters of Avalon: ethra scripen vanna, what is written in resonance, echoes in the soul.
