Appalachian Druid

Book Two - Fermentation: A Historical Dark Fantasy Novel of Appalachian Magic

The magic is changing. The land is turning. And in the shadows, something stirs.

Weeks after blood was spilled in Amber’s Hollow, the Reilly family struggles to hold themselves—and their secrets—together. Sean wrestles with his new form and the burden of legacy. Erin sees enemies in every shadow. Donovan, once the mountain’s fiercest protector, knows all too well that peace in the valley never lasts.

Moonshine wars spread like wildfire, and a fragile alliance between coal barons and the New York mob is about to collapse. But beneath the greed and gun smoke, a darker bargain brews—one that could consume the Hollow and everyone in it.

As betrayal ignites, tempers flare, and fire threatens the mountains, the Reillys must decide: adapt to a world that fears them…or let it burn.

Appalachian Druid: Fermentation continues the saga of druidic survival, family legacy, and untamed Appalachian magic. Perfect for fans of S.M. Stirling, Faith Hunter, and dark historical fantasy rooted in myth and Americana.

The mountain’s fury is rising. And when it comes, nothing will stay hidden in the shadows.
