Free Prequel Novella — The Scáthach Cycle
Before she was legend, before she was the keeper of Dún Scáith, Scáthach came to the fortress as a young woman carrying grief, discipline, and questions she did not yet know how to ask.
The Salt Between Stones is a free companion novella to Woman of Shadows, set years before the opening of the Scáthach Cycle. On a storm-lashed island where the sea is always present and nothing is taught directly, Scáthach enters a place of ritual, silence, endurance, and transformation.
This atmospheric prequel is perfect for readers who love Celtic mythology, sacred landscapes, warrior women, slow-burn mythic fantasy, and stories about the hidden cost of becoming legendary.
