With war on the horizon in medieval Ireland, everything is at stake for mortal and magical folk alike. The third volume in the critically acclaimed GAEL SONG historical fantasy series. A LoveReading Book of the Year!

THE OLD WORLD WILL DIE IN FLAMES.

Ireland, 1011 AD. The mortal kingdoms rise up against High King Brian Boru as they seek to wrest his crown from him. Yet the real struggle is between the two magical races of Ireland, the Fomorians and the Descendants, eternal enemies who both seek dominion over the mortal world.

Gormflaith, King Brian's queen, remains unmasked as the powerful Fomorian she is. Gormflaith plans to gain mastery over Ireland and destroy the Descendants in one fell swoop... but she cannot do it alone.

The Descendants are bitterly divided. Fódla, a Descendant who was once part of King Brian's inner circle, must use this division to thwart a treacherous plot long in the making – even if it means sacrificing herself. But with other lives on the line, can Fódla reveal the evil in time?

As secret schemes come to deadly fruition, the only possible outcome is war. Ireland has bled red and often, but the coming clash will change the course of history for ever.
