Awakening Avalon Stephen Weeks

Encounters with an ancient force - stronger even than the fanatical dreams of science... The forces of evil have never died; maybe there have been periods when they've slept - but never for long. The twentieth century was a time of particular evil, but when a time-lock automatically opened in a mysterious vault under Wewelsburg Castle in Germany in 1995, the prospect of a new evil being unleashed on the world became more than merely a dark fear. By 1999, when the main action of Awakening Avalon takes place, this fear had become a reality as the tentacles of evil were twitching at the possibilities provided by the rapid mind-warping developments of science. But, just as there are forces of evil, so there are - on watch, waiting, the forces of good. Once invoked, they must do battle... and this they did, on the very eve of the Millennium. It was such a terrible, insidious evil that most press accounts at the time thought it best not to tell the whole tale - there was the bankruptcy of a global software company, there were reports of strange happenings at Stonehenge and an inquiry into a series of deaths in Somerset, but this the full extraordinary story, with the action flying headlong from the days immediately after the Second World War through to the hi-tech citadel of modern San Francisco, finally coming to rest in the peaceful precincts of Westchester Cathedral, in the ruins of Glastonbury Abbey in England and finally at the monoliths of Stonehenge - where that decisive contest between good and evil was finally played out. For those who like the Arthurian legends, then several characters will be well known to them - but never as seen like this!
