Aodhán - Paperback

by Adrian Buckle (Author)

A storm splits the sky. A tree gives birth to a boy. And the world begins to end.

When a supernatural storm descends on the forgotten town of Rashford, something ancient is exhumed. From the splintered heart of an old oak tree emerges a naked boy-pale as moonlight, eyes like bottomless pits. His name is Aodhán. He has no memory. No past. But something monstrous and divine stirs within him.

As the town reels from strange phenomena-whispering winds, blood rain, shifting shadows-divine forces converge. Apollo, broken by grief, sees in Aodhán a chance for redemption. Athena senses a threat that could unmake the world. Micha-El, Heaven's blade, is sent to destroy him. And Satana, Queen of the Dark Tower, whispers promises of love and power no god can ignore.

Torn between innocence and apocalyptic destiny, Aodhán must navigate a web of divine obsession, mortal love, and ancient prophecies. But the question isn't what he is. It's who he'll become... and whether the world can survive it.
