In a world plagued with darkness, she could be his salvation. The Vikings are on the verge of losing the battle of taking over the Britains. Their commander was thought to be dead, but is now siding with the enemy. Erik has been labeled the Viking who kills his own men. The prince and heir to the throne is in love with a fiery Highland woman. He must decide between loyalty, family, and love. His family and his army are in ruins. He may be the only one who can save them. Yet the woman he loves could be carrying his child.

Scottish folklorist J.F. Campbell weaves together a tale of dragons from a Celtic perspective. It is an intricate, perhaps symbolical story that was passed by word of mouth though the ages - involving not just dragons, but also mermaids, giants, and fairies. Campbell was also known for his four-volume work Popular Tales of the Western Highlands.

As the adventures continue for the characters from The Wolves of Aam, they face more dangers in the jeweled caverns and darkness of the Shadowlands. The tale moves to a dramatic conclusion that unlocks the final mysteries of the magic stones. These books lay the foundation for the events told in later books in the series.
