Description:

My shadow gave way to a life separate from my being, changing shape as it made its way over obstacles dotting the forest floor.

When Willow Whelan begins having the same dream over and over again, her mom tells her it might be her Lakota vision quest...meaning the supernatural world is trying to tell her something. But what?
A trip to Ireland for the funeral of a grandmother she never met only adds to the mystery, sending Willow on a roller-coaster ride full of strange apparitions and ancient Celtic Mythology that literally comes to life the minute she sets foot on the Emerald Isle.
Hopefully, there, she'll find the answer to the question of how her grandmother died. And maybe even figure out the mysterious deaf Irish boy, Bram, who teaches her more than sign language.
Join Willow in Ireland for the adventure of a lifetime when she stumbles upon a truth that may destroy her and evil as old as the Emerald Isle itself.

*The word Aisling in, The Forest of Aisling, does not refer to a female name. It is an Irish word meaning vision, dream, vision poem. So, for Willow Whelan, The Forest of Aisling is The Forest of Dreams.

From the Author

Thank you for considering The Forest of Aisling.  It is the first in the three part Willow Series which explores Irish Mythology, Folklore, Legends and more.  It works as a standalone novel, independent of the rest of the series for a conclusion. I hope you will enjoy Willow's PG rated adventure (mostly for violence towards hideous creatures which really do need to be stopped) and that you will join us when Willow heads back home to New Mexico, only to find her Native American culture has its own share of surprises. 

Book Two of The Willow Series, titled, The White Cliffs of Owanka is now available on Amazon.
