The Witches of Eileanan, Book Two. At the Day of Reckoning witchcraft was outlawed in Eileanan. Behind the persecution is the beautiful and mysterious Banr gh.

Not all the witches were killed on the Day of Reckoning.The wood witch Meghan leads the half-blackbird, half-man Bacaiche and the Scarred Warrior Iseult through the countryside to the safety of the Veiled Forest, where she hopes to meet up with Isabeau, her ward, whom she has entrusted to carry part of the precious Key of the Coven. Once in the forest they are visited by the magical Celestines, and Bacaiche reveals his true identity. There are also other, less welcome visitors- the Banr gh’s Red Guards may be easily repelled at the forest’s fringes, but not so the deadly Mesmerdean.

Meanwhile Jorge the blind Seer leads his group of tattered children to the rebels’ camp deep in the mountains. The rebels plan to take the ancient city of Lucescere on Samhain Eve. If they do, and the Key can be joined, great magic can be invoked in their cause. At Lucescere is the remains of the witches’ Tower of Two Moons and its magical pool. What secrets lie in the pool’s depths? Can the Lodestar be freed and Eileanan live in peace once again?

The Pool of Two Moons is the second book in the series The Witches of Eileanan.
