From an award-winning author and lifelong musician and composer comes the third novel of The Bardic Isles Series. Over two centuries before the birth of Kaelin, the Bardic Order in Eire is at its zenith and the Gift is prevalent, the possession of Bards and Masters who know and understand its power.

The only Master Bard who sees the horrifying shape of the future is training Cyral, the most gifted among them, to master the dangerous and unpredictable music of the elements. And far to the north, Daithi, the most powerful Grovekeeper in the Druidic Order, is training a young village boy in a Druidic Gift that only the two of them possess ... a gift which no one realizes is vital to the Bardic Order's survival.

Marla Himeda is a lifelong musician who taught piano and clarinet for eighteen years at Punahou Schools and for over half a century in her own studio. She teaches her own theory and composition courses, coaches ensemble groups, composes music, and is a prolific arranger of chamber music for winds. She has performed in the Seattle Opera House, the Seattle Art Museum, and many concert venues in Hawaii, where she lives near Mount Olomana, whose twin peaks sparked the birth of Bardic Mountain. She is a member of the National Music Teachers Association, Opus 5 Winds, and is an active member of the Honolulu Wind Ensemble.Titles in the Bardic Isles Series have won eleven international awards, including the IP Awards audiobook gold medal and overall Outstanding Audiobook, the IAN Fantasy Book of the Year, the B.R.A.G. Medallion, the BookFest Awards silver medal, The Wishing Shelf Awards Fiction and Audiobook Finalist, and the IAN Awards Young Adult Finalist. The Bardic Isles Series is a merging of two passions-music and writing-and portrays a unique world that the author unabashedly admits loving to escape to. She believes that we should all have a Master Bergid in our lives, and her own life was blessed with three of them: Michiko Miyamoto and Professor Randolph Hokanson, both amazing piano teachers, and Frances Walton, an inspiring Youth Symphony director.
