With the sudden return of magic, our modern, technological society has crumbled. Cities lie in ruins, communications are limited. Ancient gods and mythic creatures rage across the land, but in this new order good and evil are never quite as they appear. Welcome to Britain's new Dark Age.
A new Dark Age has fallen across Britain; gods and monsters walk the land. In this new time, myth and legend has become realtity; nothing is as it seems. The plague came without warning. Nothing could stop its progress: the first sign of the disease is black spots at the base of the fingers; an agonising death quickly follows. But this is no ordinary disease ...Caitlin Shepherd, a lowly GP, is allowed to cross the veil into the mystical Celtic Otherworld in search of a cure; her search takes her on a quest to the end of a land of dreams and nightmares to petition the gods. Caitlin is humanity's last hope, but she carries a terrible burden: a consciousness shattered into five distinct personalities ...and one of them may not be human. THE QUEEN OF SINISTER is the latest instalment in Mark Chadbourn's riveting 'Dark Age' sequence: a masterful blend of Celtic myth and Arthurian legend in a modern setting.
