Summary of The Shadow Isle Summary of The Shadow Isle Reviews for The Shadow Isle An Excerpt from The Shadow Isle
The wild Northlands hold many secrets, among them the mysterious island of Haen Marn, the mountain settlements of Dwarveholt, and the fortified city of Cerr Cawnen. All three communities-and the alliance of humans, elves, and dwarves-are threatened by the religious fanaticism of the Horsekin. Only the magic of Dallandra and Valandario and the might of the powerful dragons, Arzosah and Rori, can save the Northlands from conquest.

“Katharine Kerr is both a good writer and a thorough Celtic scholar. Indeed, her work is beginning to invite comparisons with Katherine Kurtz’s massive Deryni saga.”
Chicago Sun-Times

“Much as I dislike comparing anything to The Lord of the Rings, I have to admit that on this occasion it’s justified.”
