Before the Great Eagle of Rome, there were the Wyrms.
Deep in the moss of Shervage Wood and atop the unthawed bracken of the Quantock Hills, an ancient covenant remains. In this collection of fictitious history and rhythmic lore, Alexander Paul Burton uncovers the secret lives of the Gurt Wyrms, the copper-scaled Jinglewyrms, and the restless, non-binary Winderwyrms of Somerset.
Woven from the fading echoes of Roman Britain and the linguistic fragments of the Tharion Cycle, these tales explore the "Fabled Gable"-a world where spirits dwell between the Physical and Unphysical Hollow Vales.
This is a book for the seekers of forgotten names, the whistlers of simple tunes, and those who know that some things are harder to find not because they are gone, but because they are waiting.
Step into the Hollow Vale. Recognise what was never truly forgotten.

A commitment to Human Authorship: the illustrations are hand-drawn in coloured pencil and Japanese sumi ink, and the writing is entirely human, with no generative tools involved at any stage. All of my recent titles are published with documented provenance, keystroke records among it, giving each book a verifiable authorship history at a moment when that has become worth stating plainly.
