Red Woman

The Fae are real-this is a fact that Aisling Morrow has believed since she was a child. Her late mother's accounts of their beauty still linger in her mind, but with the caveat: Do not involve yourself uninvited with matters of the Fae. Aisling has no plans to do so-until she discovers a prophecy which names her the Red Woman, destined to turn the tides of war in Wyldraíocht by ensuring the fall of the Unseelie Court. On a quest to understand, Aisling ventures into Wyldraíocht. Except Fae prophecies aren't easily interpreted, and she is soon ensnared in a dangerous web-at the center of which stands the vengeful Unseelie King. King Kael Ardhen, a vessel for power bestowed upon him by an eldritch god, is consumed by his own rage-a rage which he would not hesitate to turn on the human prophesied to destroy his court. Yet something about the way Aisling calls to his shadows draws him in. As unsettling truths challenge Aisling's convictions and call into question the purpose of the Red Woman, the Veil between realms grows weaker. Soon, the crueler sorts of Fae will no longer be confined to Wyldraíocht. With time running out, Aisling finds herself at the crossroads of fate and choice.

Aisling Morrow moves through her life like a ghost, forever changed by the events that led to the reawakening of the long-dormant Silver Saints. She's seen the corruption of power and has borne the heavy weight of prophecy. Now, beset by guilt and frightened by the decisions she made in the name of peace, she must gather what remains of her strength to journey alongside Rodney, Raif, and Lyre into the god realm to find the Unseelie King. But Elowas is a dark and twisted place. And the entity that awaits Aisling there-the eldritch god that spirited Kael away-is even more terrific than anyone imagined. He has staked his claim over the king and the power that binds him to both realms, and with that power would see a return to days of old when the Wyldraíocht Fae worshipped him unreservedly-and humans paid their toll in blood. Amidst the realm's decay, Aisling learns of bygone deities, the sacrifice of the Silver Saints, and a magic long since lost to time. The tale of Elowas and those trapped there is a sordid one, and recovering what was lost will push the rescue party to the limits of their resolve. A human woman, a warrior, a Weaver, a worshipper, and a once-powerful king will discover that in a realm blackened and broken, only one certainty remains: fate is not quite through with the Red Woman yet.
