Book One of the Scáthach Cycle · Coming July 21, 2026
Some women are remembered as queens.
Others are remembered as warnings.
On the storm-lashed coast of ancient Ireland, Scáthach keeps watch over Dún Scáith, a fortress where warriors are forged and old rites still cling to stone. Age, silence, and discipline have taught her that survival is rarely glorious — only necessary.
But something restless is moving through the crossings between worlds.
As sacred places begin to fail and old protections weaken, Scáthach is drawn into a conflict older than kings and more dangerous than war itself. The land remembers what humanity was never meant to touch, and the shadows gathering beyond the veil are no longer content to remain there.
To face what is coming, Scáthach must confront not only the darkness beyond the fortress walls, but the cost of the life she has spent trying to survive.
Woman of Shadows is a haunting Celtic mythic fantasy steeped in ancient ritual, sacred realism, and the slow unraveling of a world standing at the edge of forgetting.
