The Albean Chronicles
An ancient war. A forgotten prophecy. And a powerful weapon lost to time.
For three unlikely friends, the adventure of 1,000 lifetimes is about to unfold.
Introducing: The Albean Chronicles
An epic 8-book saga telling a story of war, adventure, friendship, sacrifice, and ordinary people making impossible choices in an extraordinary world.
For thousands of years, the course of humanity has been shaped — for better and for worse — by the unseen influence of strange and powerful beings.
From their perch on the vast floating island of Annwyn, hidden beyond the clouds behind the Féth Fíada — the Druid’s Fog — the Tuatha de Danann instil in mortal hearts the virtues of wisdom, curiosity, compassion, self-sacrifice, courage, and diligence. A seemingly-immortal race of kind and wise beings, the Tuatha leverage their godlike powers in subtle ways to gently guide humanity toward the pursuit of knowledge.
But for the Tuatha’s ancestral enemies, the monstrous and vicious Fomorians in the bleak wastelands of Dubnos, teaching mortals anything is a waste of time; beasts of burden need only know how to do back-breaking manual work.
So when the Fomorians begin abducting and enslaving humans — or Midworlders, as the Tuatha call them — the Tuatha are faced with an impossible choice: Attack the Fomorians, undoing a thousand-year-old pledge to not directly intervene in human affairs and risking a third war they may not win…or sit idly by and watch as the entire Midworlder race is crushed beneath Fomorian boots, just as the Tuatha once were.
That’s when the Dagda, the High King of the Tuatha, proposes a new and controversial solution: Imbue Midworlders with the power of magic and enlist them to fight against the Fomorians, to fight for their freedom.
As the Dagda’s Midworlder army grows, the Tuatha begin to turn the tide. But when seven legendary artifacts are stolen from Annwyn’s most heavily-guarded vault, it falls upon Midworlders Liam, Cara, and Dermot — aided by their mentor Priscus — to find and recover them, lest the Fomorians discover the artifacts’ true power.
Along the way, they unearth a long-forgotten prophecy that hints at a destiny none of them could have ever imagined — a destiny their ancestors ran from. Will they fulfill it? Or will they fall prey to the Fomorians’ temptations?
