There is a Welsh legend about a harp of gold, hidden within a certain hill, that will be found by a boy and a white dog with silver eyes -- a dog that can see the wind.Will Stanton knew nothing of this when he came to Wales to recover from a severe illness.But when he met Bran, the strange boy who owned a white dog, he began to remember.For Will is the last-born of the Old Ones, immortals dedicated to saving the world from the forces of evil, the Dark.And it is Will's task to wake --with the golden harp -- the six who must be roused from their long slumber in the Welsh hills to prepare for the last battle between the Dark and the Light.

In this fourth book of The Dark Is Rising sequence, Will Stanton, visiting in Wales, is swept into a desperate quest to find the golden harp and to awaken the ancient Sleepers.

Trevor Berrett

Will Stanton's ordinary life is shattered with the dreadful revelation that the Dark-the source of all evil-is rising in its last and greatest bid to control the world. He finds that he is no ordinary boy, but the last-born of the Old Ones, immortals dedicated to keeping mankind free from the Dark. Soon Will is swept up in the great battle, along with his ageless master, Merriman; the three Drew children, who are mortal but have their own vital part to play; and a strange boy named Bran. These six fight fear and death in a quest through time and space interwoven with the most ancient myths of the islands of Britain-until, at last, Will and Bran find the weapon that will ultimately vanquish the Dark.--Amazon.com.
