Inhaltsangabe:

My name’s Drew Macleod and I can use galdr. You’d call it magic. I’m slowly developing my skills with the “help” of Archer. He’s a grumpy git, but he’s the last remaining daemon, so who else is going to protect Edinburgh from all the bad stuff out there? The angelii? Don’t make me laugh. If people had any idea what was going on out of sight they’d wet themselves and the angelii are as powerful as half-drowned kittens. So it’s down to Archer and I to fend off maras, sceadhus, shades, ælves and all the other nasties out there. There’s Garm of course, but as he manifests as a small, scruffy dog his help is limited to sarcastic advice. Thank heavens for Alyssum and Traggheim, herbalist and dweorg artisan respectively. And Jamie, the best mate I accidentally dragged into all this with me.

Wyrm-galdr is the second book in the popular parallel realm series. This original and imaginative series allows a quirky cast characters to lead us into a hidden and dangerous world. The contemporary setting and the richness of the characters holds attention in fast-paced and witty writing, full of plot twists and quirky details.
