The Wizard Woman

Shanna Murchison
Southern Ireland, 1169

The great Celtic myth of the Wheel of Fate is played out against the first Norman invasion of Ireland. Dairinn is chosen by the gods to be the wife of Senan.
Senan has always hated his ‘gift’ of magical power, and chosen the path of the warrior. With Ireland on the brink of invasion by the English, only his taking Dairinn as his consort and teaching her the ways of the druids can stem the tide of violence.

Through Senan’s love, Dairinn discovers her own innate powers, and the truth behind her family history. As she grows in power, she begins to suspect the awful truth about the sacrifice Senan intends to make to save his country. The passionate connection between them can never be severed, not even in death.
Dairinn has no intention of sacrificing the love she has waited for all her life. Dairinn wages a rebellion of her own against her lover and the druid ways to save Senan and her new-found clan from extinction.
She must bargain with the Morrigan, the goddess of death, if she is ever to achieve happiness with the man she loves. But how high a price will she have to pay for Senan’s life?

Thoroughly fascinating, Four stars

This thoroughly fascinating Druid fantasy was rich in detail as it told the story of Dairinn and Senan. I found myself reading this book more slowly than I normally read in order to capture every detail. The story opens with Dairinn being betrothed to a Norman in order to try to cultivate peace between her Irish clan and the Normans who have invaded their lands. Little does she know that a stranger has arrived, a Druid, there to fulfill her destiny.
Senan, a Druid Wizard comes to claim Dairinn for his own, but he has no way of knowing how hard a road they both must travel in order to find true love and peace. Dairinn’s heritage is hidden from her for years. When she finds out who and what she is, can she handle it? Can she leave her family behind for a stranger? Can they fight the evil that threatens to overtake their land?
Shanna Murchison created two very strong characters in the hero and heroine. They held onto their love and their beliefs even through the worst adversities, making them a force to be reckoned with.
