The Walking Stones
by
""Young Donald Campbell is excited when he learns that a hydroelectric dam will be built in his glen. The dam was foreseen by the Bodach, an old man who lives nearby. But even as Donald and the whole town become excited by the idea of the dam the Bodach declares that the glen will not be flooded until he gives his leave. Over many seasons the dam is constructed but the Bodach refuses to move to his new home. Instead, he stays in the glen. When Royalty shows up to start the dam working, the workers shut it back down shortly after for they will not be party to the drowning of an old man. The crew then set out in pursuit of the old man, but they can never catch him. Just when they think they are close, he is suddenly on the other side of the glen.

As Donald tries to understand the Bodach's reasons, he learns of the legends surrounding the stone circle that occupies a part of the glen. The stones are said to walk to the river once every hundred years and the time is fast approaching. But then Donald learns something even more astounding, the Bodach has been training him to be his successor and will be given the second sight in a strange ritual."" See Review |
