The Stones Are Hatching is a fantasy novel by Geraldine McCaughrean, published in 1999. It borrows heavily from Celtic Mythology and European folklore.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })One day, Phelim O'Green, a boy living with his sister Prudence shortly after the First World War, wakes up to discover his house filled with strange, filthy creatures called glashans, led by a creature who lives behind his stove called the Domovoy. They are hiding from a monstrous black dog. They force Phelim out of the house, referring to him as 'Jack'.He meets a witch with no shadow or reflection called Alexia and a madman lives in trees and has inexplicably been alive since the Battle of Waterloo called Sweeney. They explain to him that a continent-sized worm called the Stoor Worm has been awoken by the sound of artillery from the war. As it wakes, it's eggs hatch, releasing various mythological monsters who are now rampaging across Europe. Phelim is 'Jack O'Green', a figure destined to slay the worm and save the world.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

| The Stones Are Hatching / int_23698fa8 | comment |
Aborted Arc: On the way to Hy Brasil, Uncle Murdo tells Phelim that his companions are working for the Stoor Worm and the Obby Oss is a hatchling. This is never mentioned again; this is odd because Murdo had little reason to lie, yet Sweeney, Alexia and the Obby Oss never show any signs of being aligned with the Stoor Worm. | |

Apocalypse How | |
| The Stones Are Hatching / int_91e894b4 | comment |
Apocalypse How: Type 0. British civilisation is shown to have mostly collapsed, with people reverting to Pagan practices out of fear, due to being attacked by hundreds, perhaps thousands of supernatural monsters. Because of the size of the Stoor Worm, it can be reasonably assumed that the same is occurring in mainland Europe. | |

Abusive Parents | |
| The Stones Are Hatching / int_b11ac9f5 | comment |
Abusive Parents: Prudence. Actually an abusive older sister, but she still raised Phelim, destroying his self esteem by constantly insulting him, and lied to him about his father; she claimed he had died when she actually had him committed to a lunatic asylum for being a 'dreamer'.. | |
