From the bestselling author of the House of Night series comes the award-winning world of Partholon , rich in goddesses, intrigue and magic. When she leaves her ultra-strict family, Brighid also strays from her pre-ordained life. Born to be the Chief Shaman and ruler of a herd of centaurs would be tough for any girl - and Brighid wants out. Joining Clan MacCallan as a Huntress and helping broken-hearted Cuchulainn on his mission seems much simpler - if befriending bat-winged creatures and helping them gain acceptance in society can ever be described as simple. As Brighid uncovers more about her heritage (and her true feelings for a certain someone), she realises her powers cannot lie dormant forever. And that she can not escape her destiny.
