I listened to The Hill in the Dark Grove on Xigxag, narrated wonderfully by Richard Elflyn - he knew just when to ramp up the suspense!

What starts out as a harmless story of an elderly couple eking out an existence as Welsh hill farmers, becomes menacing when Carwyn discovers a prehistoric ruin in one of the fields on their land. He becomes consumed by the need to excavate. His wife Rhian, starts to realise that her husband is not well - he’s becoming a frightening, obsessed stranger.

The ancient stones that he digs up, take on a life of their own, influencing Carwyn, making him sick. This is a really spooky, unnerving book - there are some seriously scary parts later in the book, and probably best not read before bed (although the dreams are interesting!).

I loved this, and I can’t wait to see what Ian Higginson has in store for us next!

January has a way of blurring fire and rain, of making the world feel caught between endurance and change 🌧️🔥✨ and it’s the perfect moment to step into a story where balance itself is under threat.

In Fire in the Rain, trouble rises once more on the island of Wraidd Elfennol, as failing waterways threaten land and folk alike, and the Chosen of Fire and Water—Afon and Necia, alongside their Partners Meinwen and Dai—must find the confidence within themselves and their Elements to stand against the growing shadow of Cysgod.

With mentors, friends, and ancient magic guiding their path, this final chapter of the series is steeped in Welsh-inspired myth, quiet strength, and the question January always seems to ask us: when the world is tested, will you rise to meet it? 🌊🔥📖

Talise didn't choose any of this. She came to Llyn Du with her notebooks and her questions, looking for the kind of truth you can measure. What she found instead was a man carrying a sorrow older than she can fathom, a red thread she never asked for, and a goddess waiting patiently between hill and sea who had already written her name into something ancient.

STILL WATERS, DEEP is a story about being found by a destiny rather than chasing one, and about whether love, when it asks you to sacrifice, can still be something freely given. I think it can. I hope you will, too.
