Previously published as 'The Catalyst of the Fis Naofa' by John Alan Booth.In a time before Earth was formed and the cosmos 'young', a multi-dimensional universe known as Talamh Mor was the home of humans and fae. Although living in separate dimensions, humans on Talamh Mor and fae in Faerie, they still encountered each other. Mistrust and prejudice defined the relations between the races, and these tensions fueled internal dissension among their own; Rebellion, betrayal, and abandonment of an ancient truce were the result.Fortunately, for the humans and fae, the Spiorad Iontach (Creator of the cosmos) had other plans for their destinies. Gifting them with a prophesy named the Fis Naofa (Holy Vision), that provided His sentient creations on Talamh Mor and Faerie with a surprising path toward reconciliation and peace.Book I of the Talamh Mor Trilogy: The Catalyst, sets the stage for the exciting story of the quest to fulfill the Fis Naofa. This story unfolds within the exotic backdrop of the Talamh Mor universe.

A world with a culture and language reminiscent of a far distant future Celtic Ireland; filled with powerful fae magick, and the elemental powers of the mysterious Order. Book I recounts the emergence of Eamon de Mide, a young man with a hidden past and prophetic future, into this potent mix of powers and conflict. As his heritage and destiny are revealed, he becomes the object of both amity and hostility by the opposing sides, for he is destined to become the Catalyst of the Fis Naofa. And interest in his activities is not only 'local', for the conflict on Talamh is merely the mirror of a conflict that has raged across the cosmos for millennia. The formidable First Born, both loyal and fallen, are about to enter the fray.
