Three Wells of the Sea: Three Wells Series book 1

Product Description

Uttering a forbidden spell, a druid resurrects her murdered king. But can they reclaim his throne before Death reclaims him?
When high school English teacher Hugh Cavendish is summoned back across the well between worlds, he finds his killer sitting on his throne and invaders at his shore. He was a failure as a king in his last life. Why does this druid think he can fix things now? But this world holds everything he has longed for—vengeance, love, and a second chance at all of them. For he is bound to this land by blood magic and something far stronger.
He soon realizes he wasn’t the only one who crossed the well. Someone has followed him here, and they are set on taking him back. But first, Cavendish vows to set things right with his land, his people, and his own soul. 
For readers of Celtic legend and fantasy in the tradition of Marion Zimmer Bradley and Tad Williams.
★★★★★”For fans of the dual worlds of Stephen R. Donaldson’s The Land and Stephen King’s The Talisman . . .”—Rusty Clark
