Publisher's summary

Standing on the cliffs of 12th-century Ireland following the disappearance of his twin, Hoyt Mac Cionaoith is visited by the goddess Morrigan and is charged with the ultimate of tasks: saving his and all future worlds.

His enemy, the beautiful but deadly vampire queen Lilith, has had over 2,000 years of experience in cruelly killing and changing humans into one of her own - including Hoyt's brother, Cian.

Now, Hoyt, a sorcerer, must travel across the world and through time to find and train the five others Morrigan has prophesized will join him as a circle and do battle against Lilith's army of vampires on Samhain in the land of Geall.

But just who is the witch, the shape-changer, the scholar, the warrior and the vampire? How will this unlikely band of six prepare and become one with less than three months until the possible end of the world?

Following the arrival of Glenna Ward - a modern day witch with a knack for making her own kind of magic, the kind that makes his heart melt - Hoyt must find the strength to save the world, and a love that knows no bounds.

Complete the circle: listen to all three books in Nora Roberts' Circle Trilogy, including Book 2, Dance of the Gods, and Book 3, Valley of Silence.

Critic reviews

"This well-plotted, finely detailed paranormal adventure is driven by richly developed characters, making it a cut above others in this subgenre, and among Roberts's best." ( Publishers Weekly)

'Magic and mayhem abound'

This would have to be my favorite trilogy from the most marvelous Nora Roberts, told with dramatic depth and passion by Dick Hill. Brilliant, simply brilliant!
Irish legend and magic roar with uncompromising fervor from centuries past to modern day, where the heroes and villains must inevitably face-off in the final chapters.

This character driven tale took on a life of it's own right from the start and I thoroughly enjoyed, and was captivated by each and every word!
Marvelous story Nora! Your creative genius, attention to detail, wonderfully woven plot and dramatic incline to the awe-inspiring conclusion was nothing short of devastating! I was a 'wet noodle' by the end, happy to curl in contented bliss after such a wondrous ride...

Great read!

I loved it! You feel like your in the story! I’ve never been to Ireland, but I absolutely can visualize what it’s like!

things that lurk in the dark

mixing the past with the present and how things really haven't changed much throwing vampires and mystical things and you never know what will happen but people being people The Love Story shines through

Awesome.

the trilogy is not only semantic but scary. Loved it. Book one is the gteatest.

😍😍

LOVED this Book!! Dick Hill has now become one of my Favorite narrators! Highly Recommend

An adventurous beginning!

At first probably because of the other books I’ve listen to, I felt like it was difficult to listen to the narrator. But the story was very interesting and as It continued to grow and the characters came in I found myself listening to the end of the book with every spare moment I had. I enjoyed it very much and I can’t wait to continue the trilogy.

Great story, even better reader!

I read the second out of the trilogy first and loved it then. Found the first and third to complete a wonderful story. Love, loyalty, and hope.

thank you

it has entered my life in a magical way, as if these many dimensions were converging together.... I was unaware that it was a trilogy and am joyed to see that there is more to this great adventure. blessings.

Excellent

Loved the book and it’s just the right kind of story for Dick Hill to tell

Good Book

This book has a great story, great twists, the narrator was a little tough in the beginning, but he grew on my. I am again enjoying the Nora Roberts trilogy!
