Celtic Myth PodshowMurder at Avedon Hill by P.G. Holyfield
Murder at Avedone Hill
Let me start off by giving a standing ovation to the author P.G. Holyfield and the full cast of talented voices for a job well done on one of the best audio books I have ever consumed. I put this book in the same category as Robert Jordan, Terry Goodkind, just to name a couple of profoundly successful authors.
This story was so good I didn’t want it to end but like all good things the end must at some point come. I just hope Holyfield has a lot more books to make this a very long series. With all that said back to the story.
The way P.G. puts together the story line with half orcs, elves, vampires, and moon-beasts just to name a few, took this listener by storm with its lightening strike plot. Yet, his story is not, “about” magic or unearthly beasts. Murder at Avedone Hill is about a human detective, who happens to be sensitive. not only to the land and its mystical currents, but also to the nature of the humans.
Brother Arames will need all his logical, diplomacy and magic-sensitive skills to solve a Murder at Avedon Hill. So Arames and his appertance Arrin can go through the pass to get to the other side of the mountains. The obstacles the author uses jettisons these characters into confronting all kinds of problems, while trying to solve this murder.
His website is full of additional information including art and maps. I also understand that there is a print release deal signed with Dragon Moon Press.

Lord Avedon has a problem. Generations of Avedons have watched over Avedon Hill and controlled the only pass through the Lantis Mountains. Traditions are important to the Avedon family, but one tradition has tragically come to an end. Gretta Platt, Housemistress of Avedon Manor, has been murdered. A member of the Platt family has always served the Avedons as Housemistress. until now. Only a handful of people live at Avedon Hill, and most are suspects. Arames Kragen, retired Aarronic Advisor and scholar of prophecy, arrives at the gates of Avedon Hill, hoping to gain access to the mountain pass. Lord Avedon is not in a giving mood, however.
This is the story of Arames Kragen and his attempt not only to discover who killed Gretta Platt, but also to uncover the truth about a town that apparently has more secrets than inhabitants.
The Land of Caern: It is a world where the gods, the Children of Az, can choose to be born as mortals to directly affect events in the world, and often do. It is a world where the Priests of Caern frantically search for the mortal incarnations of any of the Children, in order prevent the Prophecies of Iberian from coming to pass.
