I read this book a while back and enjoyed it thoroughly but unfortunately cannot remember the name. I had borrowed it from a friend (who can't seem to help either).

Roughly speaking the story follows a brother and sister who are transported to the past and their meeting with 'Nuada' who has a silver arm. It is set in Dark Ireland and has characters like the 'Robemaker' and an ebony throne and a scarecrow that turns out to be the lost king of ireland . . .

Can anybody help me with this - i would really like to buy and keep a copy of this book, and re-read it.

There's a group on GR that specializes in finding the titles of books we've forgotten. I think it's 'What's the name of that book?' or something of the sort.

I'm not sure but there is a series written by Jim Fitzpatrick. The first book is called The Book of Conquests and the second The Silver Arm.
