The Grey King
The Dark is Rising Sequence, Book 4
With grey clouds lowering round the Welsh hilltops, Will Stanton embarks on his dangerous mission to find the golden harp which will wake the six Sleepers “by the pleasant lake” and send them out to take part in the great final battle of Light against Dark. His helpers are the strange white-haired boy Bran and a dog who can see the wind; his most dangerous adversary, the malevolent Grey King.
