Help identifying a book

[Richard_H]

Weasel it's a paper thing with words in.


I've posted this on many forums and I'm getting nowhere. I can't remember the name or author which doesn't help I suppose. All I can remember was that I read the book in paperback around 1990. It was set in olden times and was a fantasy novel. All I can remember was that there was a Stonehenge type monument which had magic powers. I believe the other army had a monument too. Towards the end of the novel the hero managed to trigger the monument and a coloured stream of light burst into the sky - possibly red. A bit like Children of the Stones the old BBC show in that respect. I believe the cover was orange/red.

I thought it was Fred Saberhagan's Empire of the East (which is great) but I bought that and alas it is not.

Any ideas?

Hmm, I read the series as a kid and recently bought the weirdstone in a book discount store. It's possible as I can't remember the series at all. I'll read the one I have and get the second asap.
I've been googling the above for over 2 years getting nowhere!
Thanks
Richard

Perhaps that's where I've been going wrong? :lol:
