Happy Belated St. Patrick's Day

 

Deadlocked by a legend, Kellach must find her kidnapped mother to remove the Dark Druid's curse and save her people from the rampaging Norse. Bruic the Badger must find local trading ports for the Norse in order to save his sons, who are held hostage by a Norseman, and to find his siblings, lost when he was captured in his youth. Neither has time for love. Ah! Fate and circumstance take the advantage away from them both...

Sorry, we missed St. Patrick's Day, yesterday.  Maybe it was the 9 inches of snow on the ground???

My Granny always planted potatoes on St. Patrick's day, but not this year!!!
