URLink Print & Media is proud to announce the publication of Shaman of the Mountain, a new novel by acclaimed storyteller Bob Ryan. Set against a rugged mountain landscape where old beliefs still whisper through the pines, the book follows a reluctant seeker drawn into a world of ancestral rites, hidden truths, and a mystery as ancient as the stone itself.
In Shaman of the Mountain, Ryan crafts a story that balances atmospheric suspense with spiritual depth. When a troubled outsider arrives in an isolated highland community, a series of uncanny events pulls them toward a reclusive shaman known for healing, prophecy, and a past that refuses to stay buried. What begins as curiosity becomes a reckoning as the mountain reveals its secrets, forcing the protagonist to confront grief, identity, and the price of knowing.
Readers will find a richly immersive experience, where nature is not merely a setting but a living presence, both protector and judge. Ryan’s prose moves with the rhythm of ritual, blending folklore with human vulnerability and page-turning tension. The result is a novel that speaks to fans of mystical thrillers, literary adventure, and character-driven stories about transformation.
Early reviews praise the book’s vivid world-building and emotional resonance:

-
“Bob Ryan writes with the conviction of a fireside legend, delivering mystery, heart, and a mountain that feels alive.” — North Ridge Literary Journal
-
