A tale of a boy lost in grief and an old farm house where a mysterious girl plays out her sorrow on the piano in the moonlight. Grief calls to grief and sorrow to sorrow. A story of a mysterious rider who arrives in the coastal town of Angle River during its winter sleep. Is she just visiting 'the friend of a friend' from the old country or has she come for another purpose altogether? A tale of the love binds a family together and of the terrible fate and ancient magic that tear it apart. A story of the young Myfanwy as she returns home from school, to a place of magic, to where the wind carries the scent of sea and of forest, rather than the taint of six billion people all trying to live on one small planet. Stories of magic, fantasy and faith which explore the themes of love, loss, and redemption. Plus a bonus personal reflection on the proper role of storytelling and fantasy in the culture of Christianity and in the life of a Christian, including a short discussion on the author's own motivation for writing (and reading) fantasy.
