Rider of the Wind: Book Three of The Bardic Isles Series (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781959900078)

From an award-winning author and lifelong musician and composer comes the third novel of The Bardic Isles Series.

Over two centuries before the birth of Kaelin, the Bardic Order in Eire is at its zenith and the Gift is prevalent, the possession of Bards and Masters who know and understand its power. But long-standing tensions between the Bardic and Druidic Orders are mounting, and their uneasy alliance is in danger of collapsing. The only Master Bard who sees the horrifying shape of the future is training Cyral, the most gifted among them, to master the dangerous and unpredictable music of the elements. And far to the north, Daithi, the most powerful Grovekeeper in the Druidic Order, is training a young village boy in a Druidic Gift that only the two of them possess ... a gift which no one realizes is vital to the Bardic Order's survival.
