Standing on the cliffs of 12th century Ireland following the disappearance of his twin, Hoyt Mac Cionaoith is visited by the goddess Morrigan and is charged with the ultimate of tasks: saving his and all future worlds.

Now, Hoyt, a sorcerer, must travel across the world and through time to find and train the five others Morrigan has prophesised will join him as a circle and do battle against Lilith's army of vampires on Samhain in the land of Geall. Fate brings him first to Glenna Ward - a modern witch who can make her own kind of magic. Hoyt and Glenna find themselves drawn together, but is their love strong enough to survive not just the battle ahead but the centuries that separate them...?

Hadrian and Seth Castillo are mirror twins (perfect reflections of each other) who have taken some time off to travel through Europe and "find themselves" -- but what the teenage brothers discover instead is Armageddon. An emotional clash involving an attractive female traveling companion leads the twins to a confrontation with a mysterious Swedish man, during which Seth is stabbed and killed. The murder, as it turns out, is just the opening move in an intricate chess match between gods, with dominion over entire worlds is at stake. Seth's essence travels to the Second Realm, a hollow spiritual plane inhabited by horrifying monstrosities bent on consuming his soul. Hadrian, meanwhile, remains in the First Realm and witnesses the beginning of a nightmarish cataclysm. The link between the twins is drawing the two realms closer and closer together, but how can two mortal pawns possibly defy a hierarchy of divine kings and queens?
