Devils in the Cavern

Autor Peter Wright
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 mar 2010
Stan's past life catches up on him when his new wife is suddenly dragged into a mysterious portal that materialises within their cottage. Stan is forced to seek help from a local spiritualist medium. A plan of action is soon plotted and an unlikely team of rescuers are formed. The team encounter major problems when they find that maybe they have bitten off more than they had imagined. The time warp from the 20th century takes the team back to a portrayal of the 17th century where a village full of humanoids that have been resurrected from the dead, are under the influential control of ghastly sadistical, sub-terrainian creatures. The two separate but intermingling adventures of the rescue team and Stan's wife Charlie, see many twists and turns as to who will win over at the end.

Notă biografică

This, the first republication in almost ninety years brings a very special little book back into the public domain. In rescuing it from obscurity, the editing team comprising Peter Wright, Jane Frere, Kenneth Wright and with valuable support from Neville Rigby have sought to do justice to the remarkable original, written as it was, by an intrepid boy of just sixteen years. We commend it to those who would wish to know more about the rock climbing opportunities in the Inverness area - especially as described so eloquently from the experiences of youth. But it also gives a moving insight into what six boys could together achieve, as they grew from the ages of thirteen to sixteen. It has been worth putting the original book into context, and from this to show not only what a special group of boys these were all those years ago, but to give credit where it is undoubtedly due. Yes, there is sorrow in it, due to the tragedy of the War that ensued, but what shines through is a remarkable story nonetheless. Jane, the daughter of the the author, rounds off the republished book to perfection, in a moving account of how her father`s passion for the Scottish mountains and landscapes, shaped her own life, talents and interests.
