Their darkest hour has come…
Corrupt sorcerer Medoc has spread doom throughout the Dark Ireland and taken over Tara, the bright shining beacon of Ancient Ireland.
The time has come to fight back.
High Queen Grainne, descendant of Cormac and Joanna the Time Traveller, calls together her court to create a plan to vanquish Medoc and regain her throne in Tara.
Fergus, head of the Fiana, proposes a mission – to the future. The Time Travellers brought word of the dreadful Apocalypse, ruiner of the future world. Why not chain it and use it? It may be the only power strong enough to defeat the necromancer Medoc.
While Fergus pursues a path to the future, Grainne sets out to find the lost Cruithin and discover ancient magics that have slowly died out since the days of Cormac the Wolfking.
All the while, the legend of the Lost Prince, the heir to the Wolfline and prophesied High King of Ireland holds sway over their heads.
Where is this fabled heir? How shall he come to pass out of a dying bloodline and in a time of war?
Join Grainne and Fergus and their loyal companions as they race against time to defeat Medoc and all the evil he brings to the world from the Dark Ireland. Can they survive the perils in their journey and restore light to the now darkened Tara?
The Lost Prince is an enthralling return to Ancient Ireland and the shining Tara is a triumphal journey for the descendants of beloved characters. Featuring the same vivid storytelling and heroic characters, The Lost Prince is a grand sequel to Wolfking , it was previously published under the pseudonym Bridget Wood.
