Description

Year after year, season after season, for as long as Darak's people could remember, the battle of the Oak and the Holly had taken place, bringing an end to Winter and the rebirth of Spring. But this year the battle went wrong as Darak's brother became possessed by the spirit of the Holly. To free him, Darak must undertake a quest to restore the very balance of nature.

Heartwood tells the story of the sacred trees - the Holly and the Oak - which battle each year to see the change between summer and winter. This year, spring will not come because the battle has not gone according to custom. The balance of nature has been disturbed and a brave band of folk go off into the endless winter to see if they can set it right.
A competent 'journey' tale - with a likeable hero and a strong heroine.
