The complete trilogy of The Battle Raven Series: Book 1 - Celtic Rain It is amazing how life can change when a man shoves his way through your door. The feeling of adrenaline flowing as you land a hand jarring punch on his chin. Then slipping in that pesky puddle of water on the floor. It was that moment that turned everything around and when everything changed. No back to reality this time. I would like to introduce the heroine, freelance archeologist Lara O'Broin who is known world wide for her knack for finding ancient objects, charity work and art. As a single mother she worked hard to get to where she is in life. Lara and her son, Kedryn, find out that they are descended from an ancient Celtic War Goddess. The mother and son's adventure is full of adventure, love, magic, lies and treachery. Set in modern day, Lara and her son Kedryn are forced to make a choice to take part in a battle or forever watch their back in order to stay alive. They travel to Ireland and through a portal into a renaissance era realm.
Book 2 - Celtic Mist - The Calm before the Storm I have written in my journal and field notes about many unbelievable artifacts and people. I would have to say this tops my list. Never in my life did I think I would be where I am today. I look at my son and know that there comes a time when a mother must let go even though he has grown into a fine man. He will have trials that will test him ahead in the upcoming mission and I would be a fool not to worry about it. The past few weeks have been an adventure traveling through a portal, of all things, to a distant land, meeting new friends, and fighting in a battle that should never have been. Even though I, the Lady Battle Raven, left behind family and friends along with almost losing my life. I have found as my grandmother would say, “that guy around the corner”, met new friends and I have a feeling that I will have the heart splitting choice of which life I want to live.
Book 3 - Celtic Storm
This is it, the time leading up to the final battle. My time spent in this Realm on the Isle of Beannaithe has been full of love, tears and heartache. Once again I have to face my fears as not only my son, but husband and brother go to war. Kedryn and Eion still have not told me about the flash that he had about the battle. Every bone in my body tells me it is important but they shook my thoughts away saying that it is just a ripple that can change at any moment and not to worry. See this new wrinkle on my forehead. Yep it’s there. I swear more have formed every time I have thought about it. The one positive about it is when Aodhan is near to kiss it away and now we are preparing for War instead of the peace that this realm so desperately deserves. ~ Lara
