About Setanta and the Hungry Ones A Haunting Irish Fantasy You Won't Be Able to Put Down

A boy of two worlds. A famine that walks. A demon that never died. Setanta never asked to be the son of legends. His mother is the Morrígan, goddess of battle and fate. His father is Cú Chulainn, the Hound of Ulster. But when famine spreads across Ireland and the dead rise as hollow, briar-filled husks, destiny will no longer wait. With only his father, a lost child, and a trickster leprechaun at his side, Setanta faces an ancient terror, An Fear Gorta, the walking hunger that feeds on hope. Yet, the famine spirit is only the beginning. Among the flames and shadows, an old enemy stirs: Balor, the death-eyed demon king, reborn in a child's body. As prophecy tightens around him, Setanta must decide who he is: a frightened boy chasing the memory of his mother¿or the one who can stand against the gods themselves. Love, legend, and survival hang in the balance and this time, there may be no path home. Fans of dark fantasy, Celtic myth, and coming-of-age epics will devour Setanta and The Hungry Ones, Book Two of The Raven Chronicles. Pick it up today and explore into the heart of Ireland's most haunting legend¿ From JM Lane the bestselling author of Setanta and The Lady by the Water
