- Synopsis
- ✤ An incredible fantasy saga which takes the reader back two thousand years, to Ireland and Scotland where Celtic gods and magic still existed… ✤ A child of the Tuatha de Danann, the gods of the Land of Erin, is born into the kingdom of men. Half-goddess, half-mortal, Avana is the key to the gateway of the Shadows, and the Great Lord Zha’hor will hunt her for her blood. As a teenager, unaware of the secret of her birth and disappointed that she is refused training to become a druid, she runs away to Scotti. Destiny sends her to an instructress who is prepared to share the secrets of the Ancient Faith with her. In a fortress filled with spirited boys training to become warriors, the young Ulaid girl meets Valmir, a Connaughta and an enemy of her people, who will set her heart racing… As daughter of Lug, god of the Light, but also of the wicked Ess Enchenn, Avana must face her own Darkness. Rejected by her people for having tried to rescue her mother, will the child of the Light be able to resist the call of the Shadows? Meanwhile, a druid called Emroth, heartbroken at the departure of the one he loves, goes away to the Isle of Man to learn the secrets of elemental magic. Together with the mages, he will put his body and soul to the test in a quest to find the four elements which, when joined in a circle, will be the only hope for the people of the land of Erin if they are to survive the invasion of the Shadows. Let yourself be carried away by this Celtic saga in the form of a rite-of-passage novel where the characters must master their Darkness and find the Light within themselves. The author takes the reader into a fantasy world of light and shadows which reflects real human life where nothing is ever black and white, but rather a particular shade of grey. Women will easily identify with Avana, who may have lived two thousand years ago, but whose heart is filled with the same aspirations of any woman today:
