Gwyn - Ancient God of Glastonbury and Key to the Glastonbury Zodiac

Written and illustrated by local author & artist Yuri Leitch

'Gwyn' is the culmination of six years of contemplation, historical research and investigation into the sacred landscape of Somerset's unique landmark, Glastonbury Tor.

To the ancient Britons this isle in the marshes (that was later named 'Glastonbury' by the Saxons) was known as 'Ynys Wydrin' (The Glass Isle) and was their beloved sacred ground, the threshold of 'Annwn' (their otherworld paradise). Gwyn was the protective warrior god of Ynys Wydrin and the British Lord of Paradise.

Adorned with many of his own beautiful illustrations and quotes from arcane medieval Welsh manuscripts Yuri hopes that this book will educate, uplift and inspire the reader's imagination.
