Ravenmoon

Rate this book
Set in the legendary Ireland of swirling mists and powerful magic, Ravenmoon is a fantasy adventure of heroes and gods, and frightful creatures from the Otherworld.

When a child is born to the Dèsi clan, he is named by the druid Aonghus Gae-adúath – Aonghus the Terrible Spear – the man who will drive the people out of their land by a single cast of his spear.

Despite attempts to prevent this curse coming true, the terrible day dawns when the Dèsi must flee from the High King’s wrath and their home in Eire.

What follows is a fearsome story of journeying and incidents, of monsters and magic, and the ultimate fate of the Dèsi . . .
