Raising Fire
Autor James Bennetten Limba Engleză Paperback – 29 aug 2017
Ben Garston has broken the Lore. Now it's time to face the music.
Life isn't treating Red Ben well. He's lost everything he held dear, including the love of his life. Still, at least he escaped the clutches of a malevolent spirit bent on total destruction. So there is that.
Now Ben just wants to drink, and forget, and drink some more. But he can't. Not yet.
Because someone is stirring up trouble. Someone who wants to unleash a powerful ancient magic that could bring the realm of mythology crashing into the modern world.
If Ben fails to stop them, the world will burn -- and that's the last thing he needs on his conscience.
Fans of BEN AARONOVITCH and JIM BUTCHER will revel in this fiery tale of magic, mayhem and modern-day mythology.

He's had several short stories published internationally and draws inspiration from long walks, deep forests and old stones. Also the odd bottle of wine.
