NOTHING LEFT TO FEAR FROM HELL (DARKLAND TALES) (PB)

The Darkland Tales series sees Scotland’s best writers re-imagining stories from the country’s history, myth and legend for a modern audience. In the aftermath of the Battle of Culloden, a lonely figure takes flight with a small band of companions through the mountainous landscapes of the north-west Highlands of Scotland. His name is Charles Edward Stuart, better known today as Bonnie Prince Charlie. He had come to Britain to take the throne. Now he is leaving for exile and abject defeat. In prose by turns poetic, comic, macabre, haunting and humane, award-winning author Alan Warner traces the last journey through Scotland of a failure and a legend.
