In the time of the druids

Deep in the forest

Six seek the power

But only one can be chosen

Ket is desperate to be the chosen one and learn the druid’s secrets – how to predict the future from the stars, how to read omens in the howling of the wind, or speak words of power that can halt a battle. But he must prove his worth against the other fosterlings.

‘I will set trials,’ declares the druid of the forest. ‘I will watch you and judge you.’

Which of them will find the courage to face the Shadow Ones? Who will hear the meaning in the cries of the ravens? Will any of them decipher the secret message?

The bonds of friendship are stretched to breaking point as the six fosterlings vie to impress the druid. And month by month, with the rising of each new moon, one of them must be sent away. By the fifth moon, only the chosen one will remain…

By the author of the highly popular Viking Magic series, Night of the Fifth Moon is a haunting story of secrets and adventure set in the ancient pagan world of the druids.
