HIGHLIGHTS: CALEDON
Caledon
(Caledon, Book 1)
By Virginia Crow
(Blurb)
“Go out and tell all those you meet, Caledon has risen. Caledon will be protected and defended.
And to you who would cause her harm, be prepared. A new fight has come.”
After the destruction of the Jacobite forces at Culloden, Scotland is divided, vulnerable and leaderless, with survivors from both sides seeking to make sense of the battles they have fought against their fellow Scots.
James Og flees Drumossie, seeking the protection of his uncle’s house in Sutherland. It is here that James learns that the Northern Highlands hold a secret power only he can wield: Caledon. When Ensign John Mackay begins hunting Og’s family, James realises he must harness this power to defeat the enemies of Scotland.
But, as the ageless Caledon awakes, so too does an ancient evil. When it allies with Mackay, the small Clan of Caledon faces enemies at every turn, discovering that even those closest to them may seek to destroy them.

AUTHOR BIO: VIRGINIA CROW
Virginia grew up in Orkney, using the breath-taking scenery to fuel her imagination and the writing fire within her. Her favourite genres to write are fantasy and historical fiction, sometimes mixing the two together. She enjoys swashbuckling stories such as The Three Musketeers by Alexandre Dumas and is still waiting for a screen adaption that lives up to the book!
When she’s not writing, Virginia is usually to be found teaching music. She believes wholeheartedly in the power of music, especially as a tool of inspiration. She also helps out with the John o’ Groats Book Festival which is celebrating its 4th year.
She now lives in the far-flung corner of Scotland. A doting spaniel-owner to Orlando and Jess, Virginia soaks up in inspiration from the landscape as she ventures out with her canine companions.
She loves cheese, music, and films but hates mushrooms.

Posted at 20:45h, 20 JanuaryI think we’ll still be waiting for any decent version of The Three Musketeers! Much like the retell of the Iliad.
All the best to Virginia.

Posted at 22:34h, 22 JanuaryHi Luciana–Thank you for visiting and commenting on the book spotlight for “Caledon.” Interestingly, I read and reviewed a modern interpretation of “The Last Muskateers,” which I thoroughly enjoyed. It can be found as follows: https://www.amazon.com/Three-Musketeers-Cycle-Book-ebook/dp/B074D4BYCF/. The best scenes are with the Cardinal’s agent, the femme fatale Milady who has to rank among the best villainesses in literature. Hope you’ve had a great start to the new year.
