At long last we have the conclusion of "Waverley", a story that brought us through the Jacobite uprising of 1745 and was one of the first historical novels in Western Literature.

As we begin to conclude our retelling of the story of "Waverley" things begin to fall into place for our young hero, including the discovery of an old friend and some welcome news.

Our final interlude in the story of Waverley is truly an 'Interlude of Brevity', but it does an excellent job of showing us that our author has achieved his goal and the children are most certainly enthralled.

In the second part of 'Black Looks and Bright Swords' we begin to see the horrors of war as well as a short ghost story narrated by Fergus Mac-Ivor.

The beginning of the penultimate tale in our re-telling of "Waverley" - 'Black Looks and Bright Swords' sees the conflict between Fergus Mac-Ivor and Edward Waverley reach a dramatic breaking point.

As we begin to wrap up Samuel Crockett's retelling of 'Waverley' we get a first hand glimpse into the attempt to overthrow the English government.

In Chapter 8 of the Red Cap Tales retelling of "Waverley", 'Here and There Among the Heather' our hero's story turns rather adventurous.
