Time is leaking out of the human world and into the timeless land of Tír na n'Óg. The book's complex plot features alternating narratives, enigmatic subplots, and a large cast. The story sometimes gets a bit crowded but winds into a suspenseful climax. For those who appreciate an original twist on authentic lore, this will be spellbinding. Glos.
