The Faerie Bard The character, born of two different people (man and faerie), is brought up in a mystic realm where he learns and becomes skilled in music and history. As he grows, he tours the world, and gains a name and reputation and riches, while he entertains great Kings and the courts of Ireland. As time passes, he entices the world with a creation of his, which entrances the masses. As he grows old, the loss of his child sours his heart and that of his wife, and they seek to explore the far lands of their mystic realm. On this, he befriends new people, kings and queens, and comes to new battles with new beasts and foes, and even unites people to become a powerful kingship. Any fan of Tolkien's popular books - The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, etc. will love The Faerie Bard, and also Cash Bond's other book, The Hound of Erin.

Old secrets, new lies, and fae behaving badly. What could go wrong? As far as rock star Gareth Kendrick, the last true bard in Faerie, is concerned, the only good Unseelie is . . . well . . . there’s no such thing. Two centuries ago, an Unseelie lord abducted Gareth’s human lover, Niall, and Gareth has neither forgotten nor forgiven. Niall O’Tierney, half-human son of the Unseelie King, had never lost a wager until the day he swore to rid the Seelie court of its bard. That bet cost him everything: his freedom, his family—and his heart. When he’s suddenly face-to-face with Gareth at the ceremony to join the Seelie and Unseelie realms, Niall does the only thing inhumanly possible: he fakes amnesia. Not his finest hour, perhaps, but he never revealed his Unseelie heritage, and to tell the truth now would be to risk Gareth’s revulsion—far harder to bear than two hundred years of imprisonment. Then a new threat to Gareth’s life arises, and he and Niall stage a mad escape into the Outer World, only to discover the fate of all fae resting on their shoulders. But before they can save the realm, they have to tackle something really tough: mending their own broken relationship. The story text of this second edition of Bad Boy's Bard is identical to the first edition.

Seething with vengeance cultivated over two thousand years of captivity, Lord Caelwas breaks from his Faerie-mandated prison and enslaves a sect of humanity and inflames them onto a course of destruction. So begins Pilgrimage of the Faerie. Through immense travail, the young but now burdened Baytel, Druid of the Citadel, only gradually becomes aware of a powerful evil now at large. With word that his love Tira and her friend-in-battle Delphinade are imprisoned in darkness, Druid Baytel is torn between love, and loyalty to the Citadel. As cross-currents of missions verge on failure, suspicion undermines devotion, and conflicting loyalties emerge, Baytel’s battle-tested Companions unite in response, realizing they must employ all of their intelligence, courage, good humor and loyalty to face forces they do not yet comprehend. And the land itself rumbles ominously. What happened to the Tree Faeries? And where is Baytel?
