A dreadful warning breaks into Will Stanton’s peaceful summer: The Dark is rising in its last and greatest bid to control the world. Will–last-born of the immortal Old Ones, dedicated to keeping the world safe from the force of evil–must join forces with his ageless master Merriman along with Bran, the Welsh boy whose destiny ties him to the Light. Drawn into the conflict are the three Drew children, who are mortal, but have their own vital part in the story.
These six fight fear and death in the darkly brooding Welsh hills, in a quest through time and space that touches the most ancient myths of the British Isles, and that brings Susan Cooper’s masterful sequence of novels to a satisfying close.

      Alex Jennings again brings his vocal talents to Susan Cooper's work in the final installment of the Dark Is Rising series. The story follows Will Stanton as he works with others who serve the Light to struggle against the Dark in its last, most desperate rising. As in the past, Jennings helps create a willing suspension of disbelief and propels the listener onward with his authoritative voice. His narration uses just enough of a British accent to suggest setting without being difficult to understand. He is a master of dialogue, slipping effortlessly into the cadences of children's voices and characterizing accents from around the British Isles and beyond. This is asatisfying conclusion to the series. A.F. Winner of AudioFile Earphones Award (c) AudioFile 2002, Portland, Maine
