Iona: A Veil of Time Novel (The Veil of Time Series, Band 3) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

In the third book in the Veil of Time novels, Maggie is pulled back to 8th Century Scotland where an alternate future emerges.

The conflict between the Christians and the Picts culminates in a battle fought on the sacred Isle of the Druids. In an effort to overthrow the pagan religion, the monks have been trying to establish a monastery here on ground where Fergus’s ancestors are buried.
Maggie’s travels through time have her not only back in the 8th century with Fergus and his now grown-up daughter, but also forward into a future in which the patriarchal Christians did not win their historical fight to eliminate the pagan religion of Scotland. In this alternate future, Maggie lives among Fergus’s descendants at the foot of Dunadd Hill in a technologically advanced community run by women.
