Description
An ancient people discover the brutality of peace in The Plain of Pillars, a sweeping mythological (Irish) fantasy and climate sci-fi series that “weaves a vibrant tapestry of hope, resilience, and magik” (Literary Titan), and interrogates the roots of colonialism and heritage.
Book I of The Rimwalker Series: A subversive retelling of Celtic mythology and Irish fairytales and legends.
A melody once existed. It created the Rim of the World where life lives humbly and as the limbs of the land’s many colors. It was primal, untamed, and boundless. A boy, born from the yellowing mane of a horse, enters a world where gods walk with mortals, trees whisper secrets to stones, and stones morph into glistening tapestries red as blood. But it did not last…
The People of Síraide’s bond is tested in the fires of slavery and war, and together they must uncover an ancient secret held in the heart of them all.
