' In the Brittany of the 14th century, in the midst of the Hundred Years War, twelve year old twins, Tiphaine and Gromer de Raguenel, are abducted into the dangerous, magical world of the korrigans, Breton fairies of great power. They are taken into two different, and rival, korrigan realms: Gromer soon succumbs to the spellbinding of the korrigans, but Tiphaine, despite being transformed into a loathsome bird-hag, fights them with all her mind and heart, through five long years of imprisonment in the korrigans? world. Will she succeed in breaking the enchantment and freeing her brother as well? Meanwhile, in the human world, her old nurse, Viviane the Watcher, and her faithful bird familiar, Estik the nightingale, search tirelessly for her lost charges..and two young soldiers, Breton hedge-squire Bertrand du Gwezklen and Welsh-English mercenary, Wat Davies, also get caught up in the search, and become instrumental to the twins bid for freedom.' Comment on the author's website under 'Existing Books', which is archived on PANDORA..
