Henny has been kidnapped by an insane dwarf, and the McGunnegals are forced to do his bidding to get her back. They must attempt to recapture the lost mirror of Mor-Fae from the terror that haunts the Dismal Bog and then help the dwarf on a mysterious mission he says will turn all of history upside down and make the Others the masters of the world.

The McGunnegals are all strange, and it has been that way for generations. They are too strong, or too fast, or too smart, and odd things happen when they are around. The neighbors say they are witches or devils, or have been snatched by changelings. Mothers hold their children close when they walk by, fearing they might catch the McGunnegal strangeness.

Twists and turns, dead goblin armies and giants, cracks in the universe, phantasms, wishing wells, and tons of high adventure, carry Colleen and Frederick far apart and back together again. Through time and space and between worlds they travel until they encounter the ancient Witch that has ruled the Strange Land into which they have fallen. They find her to be someone totally unexpected.

The strangeness of the McGunnegals continues to unfold as Colleen begins to glimpse the latent power of the ancient bloodline that runs true in her veins. Frederick also has something within him - the poison of the Goblin Phage that threatens to transform him into one of the hideous creatures of the night. He must leave Colleen in this strange land in order to save himself, and to seek the help of a long-dead king back in the world of Men.

The neighbors say they are witches or devils, or have been snatched by changelings. Mothers hold their children close when they walk by, fearing they might catch the McGunnegal strangeness.

It's the autumn of 1848 in Ireland, and something in the world of Men has changed. Fairies have been seen, strange creatures dance under the moon on the bogs. The Dark Others have grown bold, and have plans to bring in an age of darkness. Colleen is sent on a journey after Fafnir, back to his ancient forge in the depths of time, where he intends to create a final relic to deal with the Fomorians once and for all. Frederick discovers the location of the same forge in the present, and goes there with an unlikely set of allies to find and retrieve that same relic.

It's December, 1846, and the insane dwarf, Fafnir, has returned and has convinced Colleen and Frederick to help him revive his ancient work that he began five thousand years ago, but which now lies in ruins. They must succeed, or the dragon and the terrible Fomorians in Ireland will rise and sweep across all the worlds.
