Journeys to the Past by Sir David Attenborough

Journeys to the Past by Sir David Attenborough

When the god of chaos calls the shots, you can expect Hel on Earth. And maybe hell, too.

Almost everything was back to normal: governments had been restored, cities were rebuilding, and the existence of the ancient gods remained a secret. Mostly. Only one thing was left to do: rescue the witches trapped in hell.

When Sera discovers the only way in and out of the underworld is to become immortal-the one thing she most definitely does not want to do in life-she must make the decision of a lifetime, an everlasting lifetime. But matters only get more complicated when she learns she'll need to take Danae, the ancient Bacchae who created this whole mess, with her to hell. Failing to bring Danae means the witches will be enslaved forever.

If Sera doesn't succeed, an even darker future than the one Danae had promised will be unleashed upon the mortal world. This time it will be Hell on Earth.

REVENGE OF THE WITCH is the third book in the IMORTAL RELICS urban fantasy series. Fans of Discovery of Witches, Lucifer, and Norse mythology will love this blend of magic, mayhem, and wry humor.

Previously published as DESCENT TO HEL.

Attenborough, David: - David Attenborough has been interested in natural history for as long as he can remember. As a child he had a succession of pets - grass snakes, salamanders and tropical fish among them - and explored the countryside around his home in Leicester, watching birds and collecting fossils. Eventually, he won a scholarship to Clare College, Cambridge, where he took a degree in natural sciences. After doing his national service in the Royal Navy, and a brief spell in educational publishing, he joined the BBC Television in 1952. There he produced a wide variety of programmes - archaeological quizzes, short stories, political discussions among them - but eventually he persuaded the Corporation to let him go to the tropics to make films about animals and so started the series of Zoo Quest Expeditions, three of which are described in this book. In 1965, he abandoned programme-making to become Controller of BBC 2 which at that time was less than a year old. For four years he was responsible for the network's editorial policies and for turning it into the first colour network in Europe. In 1969, he was appointed Director of Programmes, responsible for both BBC Television's networks, but in 1972, after eight years behind a desk, he resigned and returned to programme-making. Since then he has produced several remarkable series, Eastwards with Attenborough, The Tribal Eye, and most recently, Life on Earth.
