About this audiobook
On the night of a red moon, four children are born who will one day hold the world together.
Raised by wolves and left on a monastery doorstep, Jake has never known where he came from, only that something in the dark has been hunting him since the night he was born. Across the sea, a laird's son laughs at a storm while a great bear watches over him from the cliffs. And in a stone house above the Boyne, two girls keep a secret: a light inside them that could change everything.
Long ago, a knight broke an oath to the fae, and the world has been cracking ever since. Now the crack is widening, beasts with burning red eyes are coming out of the hills, and the children of the crimson moon are running out of time to find each other.
Book One of The Midworld Chronicles: a Celtic fantasy of wolves, oaths and found family, told by the man who was there.
