Patch ZircherLatest read (audio), The Old Gods Waken (1979) by Manly Wade Wellman; the first Silver John book.
An Appalachian, guitar playing folklorist investigates evil druids.
There's some charm but the mountain dialect (I reckon, we're a-fixin') & sf writer exposition may take a little patience.

SpearhafocThe next episode of my podcast What Mad Universe?!? (which will be up on my Patreon this Monday, and available to the public the following Monday) is on the Silver John series by Manly Wade Wellman, so I thought I'd do some related art. #art #manlywadewellman #silverjohn #uglybird #birds #creaturedesign #creature #monster
This is the Ugly Bird, from the first story, O Ugly Bird. It’s an ectoplasmic projection of the evil witch-man Mr. Onselm.
