About Druid’s Dance: An Arthurian Modern Fantasy (Gates of Eden: The Druid Legacy Book 1) by Theophilus Monroe
My parents built Stonehenge? You’ve got to be kidding…
Elijah Wadsworth lost his parents and twin sister in what he thought was little more than a tragic accident. But five years later, when Elijah begins manifesting strange abilities–which he neither understands nor can control–he discovers his family has been at the center of a cosmic battle for centuries… and his family’s death was likely no accident at all. A mysterious “girl in black” with dark, magical abilities pursues him, hoping to lure him to her cause.
After coming into possession of a mystical stone, which transports Elijah into his deceased father’s ancient memories, Elijah and his closest friends must discover the source of his power together lest his newfound abilities drain his very soul, and open up our world to the blight of Samhuinn. When a girl he loves, however, is threatened he must make a choice to either save her by joining the sorceress, the “girl in black,” or save the world.
Druid’s Dance is the first book in a coming of age modern fantasy that features a thrilling journey into the world of Celtic mythology, shocking plot twists, compelling characters, and an unlikely hero. With an enthralling magical romance, a compelling fantasy adventure, and a magical journey into the world of Celtic myth (including an encounter with a famous wizard), Monroe’s Druid’s Dance is an Arthurian modern fantasy that has something for everyone.
THIS IS A NEWLY REVISED/EDITED EDITION, Re-Released June 24, 2020.

Author Bio:
Theophilus Monroe is a fantasy author with a knack for real-life characters whose supernatural experiences speak to the pangs of ordinary life. After earning his Ph.D. in Theology, he decided that academic treatises that no one will read (beyond other academics) was a dull way to spend his life. So, he began using his background in religious studies to create new worlds and forms of magic–informed by religious myths, ancient and modern–that would intrigue readers, inspire imaginations, and speak to real-world problems in fantastical ways.
When Theo isn’t exploring one of his fantasy lands, he is probably playing with one of his three sons, or pumping iron in his home-gym, which is currently located in a 40-foot shipping container.
