Read about the newest award to be added to the An Post Irish Book Awards
Myth and magic combine in this unforgettable adventure drawing on Irish folklore, from award-winning author Sinéad O’Hart.
The seandraiocht – the Old Magic – isn’t remembered like it once was. Its power is fading…
When Rose is entrusted with a powerful stone by a Frost Giant, she is swept into an adventure full of danger. The stone can be used for great good or great evil, depending on its keeper. It leads Rose to discover the magic that runs through all of Ireland. A magic that is threaded together beneath the land: the Silver Road. But the Silver Road is under threat.
Now Rose must keep the stone from falling into the wrong hands and embark on a quest to find its rightful owner and keep the magic alive . . .
Sinéad O’Hart is a children’s author, a children’s literature podcaster (she co-hosts Storyshaped, available on all podcasting platforms) and a parent, all of which keeps her busy (but not too busy to read). She’s the author of The Eye of the North, The Star-Spun Web, Skyborn, The Time Tider and The Silver Road, and sometimes she can’t quite believe she’s lucky enough to do what she loves most (putting fictional people into frankly dangerous situations) as a job!
