The Veil Weavers
A Dying World
A Magical Gathering
A Desperate Journey
The veil is torn and it's not healing. Magic is leaking out of the magical world, and the creatures who live there are dying.
Keeper, the giant of Castle Mountain, calls a Gathering to find an answer. He invites two human kids to help; Josh has magical powers of his own, and his sister Maddy can see through illusions.
They have one clue. The Veil was woven long ago by the Ancient Ones. A few of them remain, living on a distant mountain. Maybe they can tell Josh what to do. But will it cost Josh his life?

where the story came from...
From Storm Mountain Lodge, an old hunting lodge in Banff Park, you can see north to Castle Mountain, and south to the Rockwall. When I was planning this story, I decided to set it right in the mountains I love the most. This meant I needed to visit more often than I usually would, to research the locations and watch the changes of late fall. It's a tough life, being a writer.
