Hollow Road — Dan FitzGerald

Legends describe the Maer as savage man-beasts haunting the mountains, their bodies and faces covered with hair. Creatures of unimaginable strength, cunning, and cruelty. Bedtime stories to keep children indoors at night. Soldiers' tales to frighten new recruits. The Maer have long since passed into oblivion, lost to the annals of time. This is the story of their return. Carl, Sinnie, and Finn, companions since childhood, are tasked with bringing a friend's body home for burial. Along the way, they find there is more to the stories than they ever imagined. Their travels are fraught with dangers at every turn and discoveries that will change them forever. Is there truth to the legends? Are the Maer the darkest threat in the mountains? Travel down Hollow Road to find out...
