About this listen

Beautiful Sorcha is the courageous young woman who risked all to save her family from a wicked curse and whose love shattered generations of hate and bridged two cultures. It is from her sacrifice that Sorcha's brothers were brought home to their ancestral fortress Sevenwaters, and her life has known much joy. But not all the brothers were able to fully escape the spell that transformed them into swans, and it is left to Sorcha's daughter, Liadan, to help fulfill the destiny of the Sevenwaters clan. Beloved child and dutiful daughter, Liadan embarks on a journey that shows her just how hard-won was the peace that she has known all her life.

Liadan will need all of her courage to help save her family, for there are dark forces and ancient powers conspiring to destroy this family's peace - and their world. And she will need all of her strength to stand up to those she loves best, for in the finding of her own true love, Liadan's course may doom them all...or be their salvation.

Magical and haunting

What an incredible and fascinating world! Steeped in old magic and ancient prophecy, the author is using the most mysterious of Irish folklore and legends to tell a tale woven with themes of family, sacrifice, loyalty, war and love. There are so many layers to this story secrets are revealed and as we get deeper into the core. I’m thoroughly enjoying this series and am eager to start the next book.

Classic

Such a beautiful story! while the love angle is predictable (isn't it always) it is unique in the telling. The story of her sister is so unexpected, even if you could predict the spoiler. Just a wonderful book in every way.

Amazing Sequel!

#Audible1

I absolutely love this sequel to daughter of the forest! Juliet Marillier is a spectacular writer. Their vocal performances were also so well done, it felt like I was right there with all the characters. Can't wait to listen to more of the Sevenwaters Series!!

Great Book!

I loved listening to this book after listening to Daughter of the Forest. It was wonderful to hear how Sorcha's story continued through her children. The voice actress who read the book was perfect.
