A Different Kingdom

For Michael Fay life on his grandparents' remote Irish farm is idyllic: haymaking, fishing in the river, exploring his own little kingdom. Then a fall on a riverbank reveals the existence of another world all around him, a different kingdom where wolves and bears still roam the dense forests, sword-bearing warriors do battle with beasts out of legend and the Devil travels the land searching for lost souls.

Drawn into this enchanted forest by Cat, a mysterious, wild and alluring girl, Michael finds himself on a dangerous and desperate journey – from which he may never escape, however far he runs...
