In my first book the Nature Spirit, Moonpool, told of her interaction with the humans as they developed from the last Ice Age until just before the Roman Occupation. This follows on from there through the Roman Occupation, the Middle Ages and right up to the present day. As Christianity spreads there are times when Moonpool, because she is a Nature Spirit or a Pagan Fertility Goddess, is at odds with the established Church, yet she is simply a created spirit ranking slightly lower than the angels and higher than the fairies. She is more concerned with the people of the valley and continues to get involved with them. She prevents conflicts, she helps them through the Black Death, she helps with personal problems and she even solves a murder and saves men from being crushed while digging a railway tunnel. It is a story of friendship, of loss, sadness and joy. Moonpool knows that she will never be human but the one thing she wants is to be remembered, because in this age of climate change humanity needs the Nature Spirits more than ever. This may be called 'Moonpool Revelation' but there are more than one revelations in this book and much of our perceived history is challenged. You have to decide, is this a work of fiction, or have I been talking to a Nature Spirit?
