Warrior of the Three Moons

Book excerpt: The winds of time blow eternal. The Wheel of the Year has turned four thousand times since the Gods defeated their brother, the Khem Ûru, the Dark God, in the great war men named the War of the Gods. A thousand years have passed since the Battle Druid Cuhulain, the last Warrior of the Three Moons, was slain at the Raven Stone. In that desperate time, the Cál Dhürra, the mythical Sunspear forged in the God Age by the Smith God, Goibhniu was lost to the sight of men. Now the Dark God again reaches out to touch the living world. With his stirring, the dark winds of war again blow over Éirinn, sacred land of the Celtae. Ciarán, a young Scotti warrior, is chosen by the Goddess, Danu, to be the next mythical Warrior of the Three Moons and lead her children in the desperate war against the coming of the Long Night--but first he must be tested. He must find the long-lost Sunspear and prevent it from falling into the Dark God's hands.
