Draoideachta is the Gaelic word for magic in Ireland, a place of mystery, mists, and old gods, the Tuatha De Danann. Long ago, the magic practitioner Saint Patrick in a takeover bid banished the Tuatha and locked away all magic, but today his church is dying, hemorrhaging magic. In a comeback play, the old gods send forward in time a man cursed by the Morrigan. Padraic O'Duibh is the long-haired, woad-tattooed son of an Irish god and a human mother. Personally, he'd rather be in hell than champion for the cute-hoor Irish gods.

Never take money from a fairy. Mealla O'Conner, a Metis by birthright, half Irish, and half Native American from Canada has a website, Trainingintotemism dot com that also does WICCA. As an entrepreneur not a believer, she now has to learn what she is and what she has to bring to the fight the hard way, while doing.

At the sights of holy wells, portal tombs, dolmans, and fairy forts, the veil between worlds is tearing. Practitioner/priests are summoning the dead. With Cork City as collateral damage, a magical free-for-all-feck-a-thon on the mist-shrouded island has begun.
