Brian Boru was stronger, braver and wiser than all other men - the greatest king Ireland has ever known. Out of the mists of the country's most violent age, he emerged to lead his people to the peak of their golden era.
The women were as remarkable as his adventures. Fiona, the druidess with mystical powers. Deidre, beautiful victim of a Norse invaders brutal lust. Gormlaith, six foot,, red-haired goddess of sensuality.
Set against the barbaric splendors of the tenth century, this is a story rich in legend - in which friends become deadly enemies, bedrooms turn into battlefields and dreams of glory are finally fulfilled.
