Beautiful Sorcha is the courageous young woman who risked all to save her family from a wicked curse and whose love shattered generations of hate and bridged two cultures. It is from her sacrifice that Sorcha's brothers were brought home to their ancestral fortress Sevenwaters, and her life has known much joy. But not all the brothers were able to fully escape the spell that transformed them into swans, and it is left to Sorcha's daughter, Liadan, to help fulfill the destiny of the Sevenwaters clan. Beloved child and dutiful daughter, Liadan embarks on a journey that shows her just how hard-won was the peace that she has known all her life.

Liadan will need all of her courage to help save her family, for there are dark forces and ancient powers conspiring to destroy this family's peace - and their world. And she will need all of her strength to stand up to those she loves best, for in the finding of her own true love, Liadan's course may doom them all...or be their salvation.

I love the way the series picks up not exactly where I expected it to pick up. I love the way it ties this book to the last one and sets up the next book. I can't wait to read Child of the Prophecy.
I wish the names didn't change though.

Continued captivation

What about Rosalyn Landor’s performance did you like?

I adore her voice and range. Never over the top, never too subtle. Just perfect.

Any additional comments?

Great second installment. Second books in a series oftentimes drag on, functioning as a bridge or filler for better books to come but this was well worth it. Great continuation, despite the oftentimes blatant repetitions in story line and similarity in characters.

Slower, but wonderful.

The story took me back to the time I was young and made up stories before I went to sleep at night.

This book was amazing.
