An exciting short read, filled with wonderful bits of magic and ridiculous radical ideas.
The book follows the early years of Catriona, a powerful druid, who embarks on various adventures in search of a book and related knowledge.
“Does eternity have an end, or does it go on forever? I do not know. Moreover, it occurs to me that true immortality is something that cannot be proven. Who but another immortal could be around to verify it? Philosophy aside, however, proof or not, I know ...more
