They send Fianne to Sweetwaters to live among relatives who had no knowledge of her existence and who may have instigated the death of her mother, their sister Niamh. Fianne has come to carry out her grandmother's long-planned vengeance on the clan--and on the Old Ones, who are the source of Ireland's mystic power. Despite her mother's death, Fianne is reluctant to harm her Sweetwaters kin. But if she lets them live, the Lady Oonagh will kill both her father and Darragh, the handsome young horse tamer who has captured Fianne's heart.<p> <I>Child of the Prophecy</I> works as a standalone novel, but readers will benefit by first reading its equally accomplished prequels, <I>Daughter of the Forest</I> and <I>Son of the Shadows</I>. <I>--Cynthia Ward</I> 2271292 book 2001 Child of the Prophecy (The Sevenwaters Trilogy, Book 3) total:1664|5:581|4:601|3:394|2:77|1:11| 1664 6656 2154 128 13925 0765345013 9780765345011 1568 123 4.00 http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1166574753m/13925.jpg http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13925.Child_of_the_Prophecy 5 1 false Fri Nov 21 00:00:00 -0800 2008 Mon Nov 17 05:41:26 -0800 2008 Fri Nov 21 20:43:04 -0800 2008 Daughter of the Forest, although in a somewhat different way.

Unlike the heroines in the first two books, Sorcha and Liadan, Fianne is not perfect and completely self-sacrificing. While some other reviewers thought this detracted from the story, I found her a more interesting and complex character.
