Summary:
An anthology of 11 fairy tales inspired by Irish mythology includes the stories of a midnight dance that steals children, a fairy island that appears once every seven years, and a silver horse that emerges from a lake. In re-writing Irish fairy tales, Scott has created a story collection that brings the timeless tales to life. Readers of his Nicholas Flamel series, or Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series, are sure to be enthralled with these stories of fairies, giants, goddesses, heroes and heroines. -- adapted from jacket and online reviews
