Sightless, An Eyes of Garnet Novel [Paperback]

Mary Duncan (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: August 5, 2008 | Series: Eyes of Garnet

In this rich tale that began with Eyes of Garnet, Mary Duncan continues the saga of Catríona Robertson which began in the windswept mountains of the Scottish Highlands and takes us on a voyage to the rugged coast of 18th century Maine in this exciting historical novel of adventure, magic and romance . Sightless Catr?ona Robertson has faced the perilous voyage across the sea to be with her father, Angus Robertson, one of the many injured Jacobites of the Rising of 1745 in Scotland. He was sentenced to seven years of indentured servitude in the American Colonies. Cat, the former Seer for clan Donnachaidh, has to keep a low profile in colonial Boston while she tries to fit into the growing commonwealth. However, her visions are guiding her to a place wild and untamed, not in the bustling town of Boston, but in the Province of Maine. But trouble follows Cat wherever she goes, as Scottish pirate Greame Hay finds out. He may live to regret the day he finds the feisty redhead aboard the ship he was looting, when he takes her to the land of her visions and they settle with the Lobster Clan of the Penobscot Indians. As battles are fought for the country she lives in, Cat is faced with a different kind of fight-one in a supernatural realm with a Mohawk Shaman bent on seeing the Penobscot people decimated. Will her abilities be strong enough to overpower this madman, or will he destroy her and the new family she's found? ABOUT THE AUTHOR Mary Duncan is an artist and graphic designer when not writing. She's designed each of her book covers. Her love of genealogy and history were the sparks that ignited writing about 18th century Scotland. Though not of Scottish descent (in this lifetime, anyway), she has a deep passion for anything Scottish (with the exception of haggis). Mary lives with her husband on the Downcoast of Maine.

This review is from: Sightless, An Eyes of Garnet Novel (Paperback)

The exciting second book in the "Eyes" trilogy is finally here! The reader will not be disappointed in Catriona's adventures in the New World. As in "Eyes of Garnet", the research for "Sightless" is thorough and the vernacular transports us to another place and time as a good novel should. A nod to Mary Duncan for giving us the action-packed sequel we've been waiting for!

This review is from: Sightless, An Eyes of Garnet Novel (Paperback)

The second novel in a series of three, this book begins where Eyes of Garnet left off. Again, awesome research and facts about early Boston and unsettled Maine. The history of the Indian tribes was great. Very much looking forward to Double Vision. My copy is on order!
