Dubhghall is a mighty warrior, trained by Scathach herself. What is more, he has been made immortal by the Morrigan, who has taught him to feast on the blood of his enemies. And because he is the grandson of Lugh, no fire nor light can harm him.

But in this time of Roman rule, the Britons cry out for justice, and Dubhghall must decide whether to answer their call when he finds himself caught between the soldiers of Rome and the warriors of Boudicca.
