The second installment is just as good as the first

Again Kenneth Flint takes us away to the mystical land of Eire, where the de Dannon people, after their sucessful revolt against their former High King Bres and his Fomor allies, are about to finish the task of wiping the island free of the Fomor. But unknown to them, Balor of the Evil Eye has decided to act against them to preserve his hold on Eire through the lower Fomor. Soon the Champions of the de Dannons (Lugh, Gilla, Aine, the Dagda, Angus Og, Morrigan, and all the rest) are pitted in a struggle against a massive technology they can neither understand or overcome. The outcome of this struggle will decide the ultimate future of the de Dannon race in Eire. Another great story by Flint that once again brings to life Irish myths and mythological stories. The promise and high concepts of the first book are still evident here. The prose is well written and fast-moving, yet there is enough quiet reflection to satisfy any reader. Go find these books and read them!
