To avoid tempting their destiny, the brothers are exiled to Nightfall Island, a land where women are strictly forbidden. But, when the youngest of the mage-brothers rescues a woman from another universe, their world is altered forever.</i> <br/><br/> Kelly Doyle had wanted to get away from the world. Threatened, attacked, and accused of witchcraft, Kelly had enough of her narrow-minded small town. And now she has somehow landed in another, magical dimension-the only woman in a realm inhabited by eight men who are desperately in need of a woman's touch. 106068 2007 The Sword (The Sons of Destiny, Book 1) total:231|5:82|4:71|3:55|2:16|1:7| 231 898 396 38 3379760 0425220605 9780425220603 25 5 3.89 http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/3379760.The_Sword 5 5 false Sun Jun 08 00:00:00 -0700 2008 Sun Jun 08 16:17:05 -0700 2008 Sat Mar 28 15:04:52 -0700 2009 If ever true love he shall feel

So bad it's good. It made me laugh lots, but I don't think it was supposed to. The eight brothers are interesting: don't really know what Saber did to deserve his fate.
