This blog is created for the followers of Brian John's Angel Mountain Saga of eight novels, dealing with the life and times of a very imperfect heroine, Mistress Martha Morgan of Plas Ingli. She lived at about the same time as Jane Austen but struggled to survive in a very different world. Total sales for the series are now over 110,000, making this the best-selling fiction series ever published in Wales.

The Sleeping Goddess
Further to my recent post, this is a photo taken the other day -- showing the profile of the Carningli summit as seen from the S or SW. Call her what you like -- Sleeping Goddess, Mother Earth or the Earth Goddess -- but the female profile is unmistakeable, and maybe this goes some way to explain why some people think of the mountain as sacred, and why it is held that this reverence for the mountain goes back to pre-Christian times.
