The ancient gods of Celtic mythology have returned, and technology has become redundant. It is myth and magic that now reign supreme in the new Dark Age . . . this Age of Misrule.
The Eternal Conflict between the Light and Dark once again blackens the skies and blights the land. On one side stand the Tuatha de Danann, golden-skinned and beautiful, filled with all the might of angels. On the other are the Fomorii, monstrous devils hell-bent on destroying all human existence.
And in the middle are five flawed individuals, determined to use the strange power that binds them to the land in a last, desperate attempt to save the human race. Church, Ruth, Ryan, Laura and Shavi have joined forces with Tom, a hero from the mists of time, to wage a guerrilla war against the iron rule of the gods. But they didn't count on things going from bad to worse . . .
For the Fomorii are plotting to resurrect the Heart of Shadows, also known as Balor, the one-eyed god of death believed destroyed when they first walked the world an aeon ago. And if this ultimate Evil casts its grim shadow across the country once more, it really will mean the end of everything . . .
