Child of the Prophecy (Sevenwaters Trilogy, 3) [Marillier, Juliet]

The old magic is fading, the groves are failing, and the ways of Man are driving the Old Ones to the beyond. If nothing is done, Ireland will lose its essential mystic core. The prophecies of long ago fortell a way to prevent this horror, but the ways of prophecies are never easy... and there are those who would stop the prophecy for their own ends.

It is up to Fianne, daughter of Niamh—the lost sister of the Sevenwaters clan—to solve the riddles of power. A shy child of a reclusive sorcerer, her way is hard, for she is the granddaughter of the wicked sorceress Oonagh, who has emerged from the shadows and seeks to destroy all that the Sevenwaters have strived for, and will use Fianne most cruelly to accomplish this fate.

Will Fianne be strong enough to battle this evil and save those she has come to love?

Child of the Prophecy is the third book in Juliet Marillier's trilogy of the Sevenwaters clan—a family whose fortunes are bound into the lifeblood of Ireland, and whose fates may determine if the old magic will stay in this enchanted land. Set against the lush woods of ancient Ireland and culminating in a epic battle between the forces of good and evil, Child of the Prophecy is the conclusion of a mystical war that has been waging in the Celtic Isles for hundreds of years.
