Clara and Neil have always known the MacArthurs, the little people who live under Arthur's Seat, in Holyrood Park, but they are not quite prepared for what else is living under the hill. Feuding faery lords, missing whisky, magic carpets, firestones and ancient spells ... where will it end? And how did it all start? Set against the backdrop of the Edinburgh Fringe and Military Tattoo this is a fast-paced comic adventure, full of magic, mayhem and mystery ... and a dragon.
What lurks behind the magic mirrors? How are they connected to the missing Sultan's Crown and what secrets does the mysterious Black Tower hold? From an Edinburgh literally cloaked in tartan, through the forbidding Highland hills, Neil and Clara set out on a perilous journey of winged horses and snow witches -- and a reluctant broomstick. Anne Forbes was born in Edinburgh and divides her time between Scotland and Kuwait. The Wings of Ruksh is her second novel.
Every 20 years, a human lass is chosen to join in marriage with the MacKay clan and fulfill the treaty set down many generations ago. But when Clan Healer Brigid Lewis is tricked into leaving her home, only to be tied to the stake in the bailey of the keep, she expects nothing but death and certainly not a gigantic green dragon to descend from the sky defending her. Aodhfionn MacKay is the eldest of four brothers and son to the Dragon King. He volunteers to take a human lass as his mate and fulfill the treaty with the humans, but when he sees Brigid is not a willing lass and therefore the treaty is broken, he battles with his dragon's desire for his mate and his human side, knowing the right thing to do, is give her back. With his brothers eager to challenge him and take his place as heir, Finn and Brigid agree to a fake marriage until he can avenge her against her clan for forcing her into marriage and keep the treaty alive in the eyes of the dragons. But what they do not expect, is the growing affection between them. The thought of giving her up, however right it would be, could kill him.
