Aiden Elam doesn't quite fit in with the other kids in the mortal world, and for good reason. When the Morrigan, the Celtic goddess of war, kidnaps him and drags him off to Eile, he soon learns there is far more to his strange life than he ever thought possible. Aiden's heritage, much to his surprise, connects directly to the high queen of Eile, and when she insists he spend his summers in her realm, Aiden and his family are understandably hesitant. With the Morrigan defeated and the dark magic of the Otherworld up for contention, this new world Aiden belongs to isn't exactly safe. But deep in the heart of Eile there is an ancient forest protected from the dark beings and harmful magic of this enchanting realm - a place Aiden might find refuge and perhaps, if he's lucky, discover his first real friend.
