When Old Things Awaken

The McGunnegal Chronicles, Book 5

When Old Things Awaken is Book 5 of The McGunnegal Chronicles - a fun, clean, Irish/Celtic fantasy series that's kid and family friendly.

It's December, 1846, and the insane dwarf, Fafnir, has returned and has convinced Colleen and Frederick to help him revive his ancient work that he began five thousand years ago, but which now lies in ruins. They must succeed, or the dragon and the terrible Fomorians in Ireland will rise and sweep across all the worlds.

From the mysterious shadow realm of Deep Faerie in Ireland, to the rich magic of the Orkney Islands of Scotland, beneath the earth in the mines and dragon dens of Wales, and to a magical apothecary hidden in the midst of the humans of Rotherham, the McGunnegals and Frederick go on a grand adventure among the creatures of legends and fairy tales.

Filled with moments of wonder and amazement, mystery and riddles, action-packed battles, and heart-wrenching trials, When Old Things Awaken carries listeners to new and exciting realms in this beloved series.
