Publisher Description: Morgan Llywelyn, author of the Irish Century series of historical novels and for Lion of Ireland, weaves Irish mythology, historical elements, and ancient places in the Irish landscape to create a riveting tale of migration, loss, and transformation in Only the Stones Survive. For centuries the T atha D Danann lived in peace on an island where time flowed more slowly and the seasons were gentle--until the invaders came. The Gaels came looking for easy riches and conquest, following the story of an island to the west where their every desire could be granted. After a happy and innocent childhood, Joss was on the cusp of becoming a man when the Gaels slaughtered the kings and queens of the T atha D Danann. Left without a mother and father, he must unite what is left of his people. Even broken and scattered, Joss and his people are not without strange powers. |
