Thank you to Netgalley and Head of Zeus for a copy of this book.
The sequel to The Children of Gods and Fighting Men mixes ancient Irish history with mythology.
Gormflaith is unhappily married to High King Brian Boru, while hiding her powers as a member of the immortal race of the Fomorians, sworn enemies of the the Descendants.
Meanwhile descendant healer, Fódla is desperate to keep her nephew, Broccan safe from those that wish to do them harm.
I enjoyed this even more than the 1st book as we got to know the characters, especially Gormflaith and Fódla even better. Really looking forward to the next and final book in this trilogy.
