The exciting finale to Juliet Marillier's critically acclaimed Sevenwaters Trilogy is Child of the Prophecy.
Magic is dwindling, and the Old Ones are being driven farther westward and beyond the reach of humanity by human methods. If action is not taken, the ancient groves will be destroyed and Ireland would lose its central mystique.
The Spirits of Eire turn to the Sevenwaters clan in hopes of finding redemption, since ancient prophesies have predicted a means to stop this tragedy. They are a family woven into the fabric of the country, and they have experienced both immense pleasure and profound tragedy as a result of their vow to protect the magic.
The task of deciphering the mysteries of power falls to Fainne, the daughter of Niamh, the missing sister of Sevenwaters. Her path is difficult since her father is the evil sorceress Oonagh's son, who has come out of the shadows to ruin all Sevenwaters has worked for. She is the timid daughter of a reclusive sorcerer. Oonagh would do whatever to see her will carried out, even if it means using her granddaughter Fainne in the cruelest way possible.
Will Fainne be able to defeat this evil and protect the people she has grown to love?
