A broken girl. A rising druid. And a god whose war has only just begun.
After the accident, Emma can’t outrun the fear. Anxiety follows her everywhere — into her relationships, her routine, even her sleep. But with help from her counsellor, a new apprenticeship, and a willingness to face what’s hurting, Emma begins to build something that feels like hope.
And through it all, there’s Clara.
In the world of Calambria, Clara the druid has crossed into the Fae lands — where nothing is simple and every word carries weight. With the war against Josephine escalating, Clara finds herself leading a campaign not just with sword and spell, but with fragile alliances and choices that can’t be undone.
As the party faces deception, danger, and the growing power of a god who never plays fair, Clara must learn the hardest lesson of that strength doesn’t always come from standing alone.
Back at the table, Emma begins to see just how far she’s come — and how much of Clara’s courage has always been her own.
The Druid and the Fae is Book Four of the Calambrian Adventures — a story of healing, hope, and the quiet bravery it takes to trust again, in fantasy and in life.
The Fae are watching. Josephine is rising. And this time, it’s personal.

Praise for Mike Hibbert
★★★★★ - As a qualified counsellor, I was keen to read Mike's foray into helpful fiction, which I found to be very cleverly, sensitively and wisely penned. -- Brad Loren, Counsellor
A lovely, thoughtful conclusion to the Calambrian series. In the real world Emma struggles to find her place after a traumatic experience and a sense that her friends and boyfriend are all forging greater post-A level lives than she is. In the game world, the storyline established in the previous books build to a final thrilling confrontation with the evil Josephine. Great stuff, having stuck the landing here it’ll be interesting to see what Mike Hibbert does next.
