'Twas a time when dragons left their lair and evil shadowed the land....
On the Day of Reckoning, the witches of Eileanan were outlawed--and violations of the new order were punishable by death. Eileanan's Great Towers, once meccas of magic and learning, were left in ruins. And now, the entire land trembles in fear....

Ignorant of her past, uncertain of her future, the foundling Isabeau will soon be forced down a dangerous path of prophesy, conspiracy, and magic. It is a world where dragons possess the key to ancient mysteries...where a lost prince will discover a strange and wondrous destiny...and where the ultimate battle between good and evil will be waged....
A new Day of Reckoning is at hand....

From Library Journal
In a land where witchcraft has been forbidden, young Isabeau learns the old ways in order to take her place in the battle to overcome the forces that threaten her world. Australian poet Forsyth's fantasy debut details a richly imagined universe with a distinctly Celtic flavor and introduces a resourceful and courageous protagonist. This first novel in a projected trilogy belongs in libraries where the demand for epic fantasy is high.

A Novel Fantasy for those with Novel Minds
By Shyxlilfox
I first stumbled upon the second book of the series at my local library when I was searching for readable fantasy. With all those other books out there that were either generic or just boring, I didn't expect much from this one (since it wasn't as highly publicized as Jordan or Eddings). However, I realized how wrong I was after reading it. Although there were some similarties to Jordan's WoT, this book had characters that weren't -just- good or evil. The magic, mystery, characters, and riddles were all woven into each chapter beautifully to keep me wanting more.
The use of dialect also enhanced the reading and kept the book realistic to it's Scottish roots. The fantasy books that just keep to the traditional-fantasy-Medieval-kinda-thing gets a little repetitive... so the use of dialogue helped. For those who couldn't decipher the words, all it really takes is a little reading in between the lines. Actually, after reading The Pool of Two Moons (Book 2 of the series), I found myself thinking in Scottish Brogue, which was quite silly when I was trying to type an e-mail to my friend with words like "Och" and "ken."
The Third book in the series did contain a lot more warfare than I would've liked. However, fans of Forsyth would know that she wishes to show the readers about Scottish history and their persecution for Pagan beliefs. With conflicting religions in Eileanan (The Coven Vs. The Bright Soldiers), war is bound to happen. The warfare just makes the book more realistic and enticing than typical hero-wins-easily-with-magic-bad-guy-loses fantasy.
The females in this story also appealed to me when I started reading the book. The three main-female characters Isabeau, Meghan, and Iseult all have conflicting personalities, and Forsyth does wonders to show how these three females trudge through life. This is not only a fantasy book, but a "coming-to-age" book for young readers. This book simply proves that not everyone can have happy endings.
To conclude this long review, I'd just like to say Forsyth brings a lot of reality, history, and magic into her works. Why not read it as book equal to Jordan's WoT series (which I found quite tedious after awhile) instead of seeing it as a copy of the series? All three books have their strong and weak points, like all books. But this series definitely has more strong points than weak. People will definitely have fun reading this series, and may Éa bless ye all.

They are wonderful reads, and I don't consider myself a Fantasy ...
By Carrie Whittier
I have been so pleasantly surprised by this book, as well as the entirety of the Witches of Eileanan series (I'm currently in the middle of the fifth book). They are wonderful reads, and I don't consider myself a Fantasy genre reader, so this has been a big change for me. I do, however, LOVE Diana Gabaldon's "Outlander" series and have had such a hard time finding books that are as satisfying.
Kate Forsyth's "Eilianan" are filling that gap with gusto and I am so grateful. She is a wonderful writer and I hope she keeps them coming.

Great book!
By A Customer
This is one of those books that you can't put down. The characters are well developed and interesting. I couldn't wait for the second book to come out. (See the Pool of Two Moons).
