Standing on the cliffs of 12th century Ireland following the disappearance of his twin, Hoyt Mac Cionaoith is visited by the goddess Morrigan and is charged with the ultimate of tasks: saving his and all future worlds. His enemy, the beautiful but deadly vampire queen Lilith, has had over two thousand years experience in cruelly killing and changing humans into one of her own - including Hoyt's brother, Cian.
Now, Hoyt, a sorcerer, must travel across the world and through time to find and train the five others Morrigan has prophesized will join him as a circle and do battle against Lilith's army of vampires on Samhain in the land of Geall. But just who is the witch, the shape-changer, the scholar, the warrior and the vampire? How will this unlikely band of six prepare and become one with less than three months until the possible end of the world?
Following the arrival of Glenna Ward - a modern day witch with a knack for making her own kind of magic, the kind that makes his heart melt - Hoyt must find the strength to save the world, and a love that knows no bounds.
First in a trilogy from the #1 New York Times bestselling author
Dick Hill uses a deep, masculine Irish brogue to characterize Sorcerer Hoyt MacCionaoith as he fights to the death with a centuries-old vampire named Lilith. After claiming Hoyt's twin brother as her own, she now wants Hoyt to join her vampire family. The goddess of battle, Morrigan, comes to Hoyt's rescue, but only to charge him with leading the greatest battle ever waged against Lilith and her demons. Hill portrays vampires with ragged, husky demonic whispers. However, his excellent narrative skills cannot salvage this unbelievable, unimaginative plot, or the one-dimensional characters who are impossible to keep track of. Roberts's venture into the dark side is uncharacteristically bad. G.D.W. (c) AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine
