Now, the author of the Faery-Faith books, the Faery Wicca series and the Gaia Tradition brings us a new novel series all about the Faery in Ireland. History and fiction merge seamlessly in Kisma K. Stepanich-Reidling's luminous novel about Faery lore and immortal awakening.
Through the eyes of a Faery witness, the Otherworld comes dazzlingly alive in the lavishly imagined dramatic portrayal of the adventures an international group of Faery-Faith practitioners have, when they join Vivian McFarlain, an American tour facilitator, and Cian O'Neill, an Irish-druid as their guide, for the pilgrimage of a lifetime and come face to face with the
Faery with Teeth., Book
One of the Faery Chronicles
~ Sinend, Faery Chronicler
Oceans Of Time, the second installment of The Faery Chronicles is a masterfully, daring, and beautifully written novel set in fourteenth century Ireland. In the true fashion of a traditional Irish storyteller, Kisma K. Stepanich-Reidling guides us into the extravagant aura of the Otherworld, as she expertly portrays the richly dramatic and cursed romance between Ainé, the Irish Faery Goddess of Love, and the historical Second Earl of Desmond, whose meddling in the black arts unleashes a demon upon the world. The ancient past weaves together with modern times through a battle between humans and demons, the outcome of which will affect both the Faery and human worlds.
Heather Devine is a writer of women's spirituality and a student of Celtic Traditions. When researching Irish lore for her next book, she comes across an ancient ritual and performs it, conjuring an Otherworld Being: a Faery Queen. The Faery Queen becomes Heather’s teacher of the Faery Tradition, which—according to Queen Fay—can only be passed down mouth-to-ear; an oral Faery Tradition rich with wisdom and kept hidden in the Land of Faery since the Tuatha De Danaan withdraw from the world of mortals. Queen Fay encompasses Heather in a mist of powerful experiences; some of which challenge Heather’s sanity and force her to have an awakening of past life memory. As Heather's relationship with the Faery Queen develops, Heather is visited by a Leanhuan Sidhe, Trooping Faery, the Unseelie Court, obtains a Fetch, and is unwittingly coached for admittance into the inner court of the Sidhe. When Heather is escorted into Faeryland, there she receives a 'gift of Faery'.
The ancient tale of The Sickbed of Cuchullain comes alive in the 21st-century as re-told through the lyrical and enchanting voice of Ms Stepanich-Reidling's storytelling. Filled with gods and goddesses, and Inbetweeners and elementals, demi-gods and mortals, moving between Faeryland and the land of mortals, the passionate love story of a goddess and demi-god.
Set in 21st-century Ireland, we are taken effortlessly between our world and the realm of Faeryland, where we are guided through the twists and turns of this newly created, yet significantly traditional based tale; a journey that evokes a deeply emotional response and leaves us wanting more.

Dear One,
Today I turned 73! Imagine that! How quickly time has flown. Well, that's okay. Life is what it is. I'm away to Ireland to finish my mission -- don't worry, it's all explained in my journal, which I entrust into your keeping along with all my Faery things. You'll know what to do with them.
Thank you for being such a good friend these past few months. I have greatly valued your friendship... more than you'll ever know.
Fondly,
Katie

And so begins IT'S ALWAYS ABOUT TRUST, ISN'T IT?
In this volume we are taken back to the beginning, back to the end of the first novel, Faery With Teeth. Vivian McFarlain did not get on the plane to travel back home, instead she stays in Ireland to begin a search to understand the materialization Lugh, the ancient Irish Sun God, and his interactions with her during her time in Ireland.
Now, she returns to Brigid's Well in Kildare, where the saga continues to a conclusion. Vivian and Cian reunite and find they are swept away into Faery, where the ancient spirits of Banba and MacCuill are awakened. A supernatural time loop replays, taking them both deeper into the clutches of the Otherworld.
303 pages filled with the final story of the popular Faery-Chronicles 6-book novel series, containing Special chapter "artefacts" illustrations by the artist and magician of words, Kunst Blau and (hardcover only) two watercolor paintings by Kisma. Book.
In this gripping new novel, interspersed with authentic ancient earth rituals and magic, Stepanich-Reidling takes us on an adventure into Land Bann, where priestesses communicate through the art of sounding and the land has been ruled by a succession of Matriarchs.
When Lord Mahnet and his men arrive on the shore of Land Bann, life is threatened. When learning of Mahnet’s secret mission -- to enforce a male god upon the people -- Captain Garthe creates anarchy and he and his faction form an alliance with the kinfolk.
When the kinfolk learn of the invaders, Priestess Muiranda, the next Matriarch twists fate by desperately seeking help from the Ancient Ones and evoking the dark side of Goddess. Garthe and Muiranda join forces and lead their people into battle against Lord Mahnet, but the damage wrought by Muiranda’s meddling in the supernatural creates chaos.
The Ancient Ones withdraw from the world, taking with them the magic of the land. Murder, rape and moral battles ensue.
Only Muiranda and Garthe can bring a balance to the land, but Muiranda is lost to the Dark One. Garthe must find a way to reach her before it’s too late.
An Odyssey of time twisting and space bending back or forward to relevant intersections of space-time experiences, involving an empress from one dimension and timeline and a magician from another dimension and timeline. Both meet on planet earth on the small island today known as Santorini, Greece. Through a series of experience duplications, their reality is molded until the most suitable outcome is achieved. BEYOND ATLANTIS is filled with supernatural and magical elements, four remaining Atlanteans, an ancient Egyptian, a man from the Future, Twin Flames, blue-skinned aliens, and of course the locals of Earth. All-in-all, in essence, it is a love story of fantastical proportions.
"We’re bound together,” he did say looking away from her pain, the sorrow she seemed to suddenly wear, that he too felt overtake him. He tried to search for the meaning to what he was doing, why he was doing it, but the words kept coming out in a rush. “We’ll find a way through… we’re bound together… we’re bound together… we’ll find a way through but together, not separate. No separation this time. Promise me this.”
“We cannot,” she said so matter-of-factly that he groaned in refusal. She stood. “Come now. There is news awaiting us on the volcano.” She would not look at him, instead she glanced up to the sky. “The sun sits at mid-day, we must return.”
“Mid-day?” he said confused for when he came in search of her it had been early morning. He rose, a thunderous pounding in his head. He grabbed his head with his hands, bending over…. He moaned in discomfort. “Why are you doing this?” he growled. Looking at her, his face disfigured with pain. “Why are you taking this from me? From us?” he demanded. Her name was in his mind though she’d never told him. Her name rolled to the tip of his tongue and he whispered it…..

This is Kisma's first book published in 1989.
This is an invaluable book for every man and woman who is ready to understand the origin of their essence; to go beyond the threshold of self-imposed limitations and begin working on a true and balanced level of attunement with our potential power.
An Act of Woman Power goes beyond the normal "how-to" or "self-help" book because the ultimate outcome of the step-by-step guidance is an awakening of all the senses, the rising of potential energy, and a deep merging and connection with our greatest support system: Mother Earth.
