A coming revolution…
One woman at the center of it all…
London, England. Mysterious. Beautiful. Full of legends and lore. It is home and a safe place for Ameila Pivens Kreutzer. For an ancient society of witch hunters, and practitioners, it is an easy place to go unnoticed. And for Scotland Yard’s Denny Carlisle, on All Hallows Eve, when the Full Blood Moon reaches its highest point in the sky, it will become a city of awe and mayhem as the most powerful witch in modern history rises, to avenge her lost love and forever end the ancient war among the witches and those who hunt them.

Thank you for supporting the Irish Harpers as we try to SAVE TARA. On Saturday 22nd September 2007 at 3 p.m. the harpers of Ireland will gather at Dáil Éireann to demonstrate publicly the strength of their opposition to the destruction of historic cultural sites at the Tara/Skryne Valley as a result of the current route of the M3 motorway. The harpers will assemble with their harps along Kildare Street, and will submit a petition to Minister John Gormley insisting he implement alternatives to the continued destruction which is taking place. This will coincide with similar demonstrations in New York city, Chicago and Los Angeles all on the 22nd Sep. Thanks, Laoise Kelly.
Here's to powerful women who do cool things...Good luck to Amelia and may she rock. Thx for the friend request! Natasha Mostert, author of Season of the Witch
