From the author of The Copper Crown, The Throne of Scone, and Strange Days: My Life With and Without Jim Morrison Turn On, Tune In, Drop Dead... Three Days of Peace, Music...and Murder. When Rennie Stride and her friends go off to this summer rock festival in rural upstate New York-a little weekend diversion called Woodstock-the last thing any of them expects to come across is a dead body. Or two. Though at this point, of course, it should be the first thing they expect: renowned journalist Rennie-also known as Murder Chick-seems to have a backstage pass to music-biz murder. And she isn't afraid to use it. But when she encounters rock death on Max Yasgur's dairy farm, in the middle of half a million people and the greatest rock musicians of the age, and when people she loves get caught up in it, including her own betrothed, superstar guitarist Turk Wayland, she finds herself right back on the front lines once again. Or still... Patricia Kennealy Morrison is a retired rock critic-one of the first female rock critics ever, a Founding Mother of the genre-and the former editor of Jazz & Pop magazine. An award-winning, two-time Clio-nominated ad copywriter, she is the author of The Keltiad science-fantasy series and the memoir "Strange Days: My Life With and Without Jim Morrison", whom she married in 1970. She attended St. Bonaventure University as a journalism major and graduated from Harpur College (now Binghamton University) with a B.A. in English literature. She has also studied at NYU, Parsons School of Design and Christ Church, University of Oxford. She lives in New York City. This is her fourteenth book and the fifth in the series The Rock & Roll Murders: The Rennie Stride Mysteries.

From Patricia Kennealy-Morrison comes a return to the world of Keltia and Aeron Aoibhell. Tales of Spiral Castle brings back beloved characters from Kennealy-Morrison's books of The Keltiad (The Copper Crown, The Throne of Scone, Blackmantle) in four stirring short stories that remind the reader of the original stories. The Last Voyage takes place long ago, in a time of great religious struggle on Earth, and is a hitherto untold part of Keltic history and Earth history alike, incidentally detailing how the great Clann Douglas, as well as the fabled Knights Templar, arrived in Keltia. Touchstone Aeron Aoibhell, a young princess, is set to a test that will determine not only her future as queen to follow in her ancestor's footsteps but the fate of worlds and empires beside... Alembic brings tales of Gwydion as a youth from fourteen to eighteen as he learns his pathway to his destiny. Crucible tells us the story of the Terran lieutenant Sarah O'Reilly, just after her arrival in Keltia with Captain Haruko and the rest of the crew of the Sword. Return to the world and time of the Kelts, the beautifully crafted world of Patricia Kennealy-Morrison as she rediscovers the future worlds you've loved and waited to return. Patricia Kennealy-Morrison is also author of The Rennie Stride Murder Series, Rock Chick, Strange Days: My Life With and Without Jim Morrison, and the forthcoming Viking novel, Son of the Northern Star.

Turn On, Tune In, Drop Dead Reporter Rennie Stride and her superstar guitar-stud and part-time aristocrat fiance, Turk Wayland, have settled down in a historic brownstone in New York's East Village, following Turk's band Lionheart's epic tour closer--a shockingly spectacular four hour Madison Square Garden concert. Even more shocking: two dead people in a snow-filled cemetary, and they didn't end up there the way you'd think. More socking still: Lionheart's lead singer, Niles Clay, comes pounding on Rennie and Turk's door the day after the Garden concert, confessing that he may have been the one who killed them. Nothing new, for Murder Chick.... So Rennie's task, at Turk's desperate behest, is to prove Niles didn't do it. Though since the two loathe, detest, hate and despise each other, that may be more of a problem than any of them thinks.

All others can only aspire to be, uh, Rock Chick-esque." -Steve Hochman, veteran music journalist, Los Angeles Times, Rolling Stone, KQED, KPCC, etc. Patricia Kennealy-Morrison is long regarded as one of the Founding Mothers of rock journalism, helping to create the genre that changed the face of the music that shaped the sixties and seventies.

And now, years later, she's sharing those memories by republishing her original articles. And we, the readers, can view those moments in time in her unique perspective. For those of us who were there, it's a chance to remember an amazing time. For those who weren't, it's a chance of a lifetime -- to find out what it was really like.
