Description
It is the last decade of the sixteenth century: a time of religious wars in the mortal world. But the Sithe are at peace, hidden behind the Veil that protects their world until their queen, Kate NicNiven, determines to destroy it.
Seth MacGregor is the half-feral son of a Sithe nobleman. When his father is assassinated and Seth is exiled with his brother Conal to the full-mortal world, they vow not only to survive, but to return to reclaim their fortress and save the Veil.
But even the Veil's power cannot protect the brothers when the brutal witch-hunts begin….
Brimming with intrigue and rebellion, Firebrand is the first book in the Rebel Angels series by Gillian Philip, the Carnegie Medal–nominated author of Crossing the Line and multi-award-nominated Bad Faith.
Advance Praise
"Once a year, a new novelist really blows me away. Last year it was Suzanne
Collins with The Hunger Games…. This year it's Gillian Philip's
Firebrand…. A fantastically violent, utterly thrilling tale....
Firebrand is one of the very best...Philip’s clear prose is as fiery as
whiskey…. The best fantasy novel of 2010."—The Sunday
Times
"Philip has created an utterly believable other world, where
male and female are equals in arms. It is often stark and brutal but with
moments of heartbreaking beauty."—The Guardian
