Head of Zeus lists November 10 as the US hardback publication date for Shauna Lawless’s Son of the Serpent. The novel continues the second era of Gael Song, where the rivalries of medieval Ireland intersect with the lives of its immortals. The story opens in winter 1169 with Isolde reaching the stronghold of her

immortal kin, the Descendants. She finds she has a gift for magic, but disturbing visions accompany it. Elsewhere, Cuan has a curse to contend with as his growing reputation draws the attention of both allies and enemies. With Anglo-Norman lords pushing farther into Ireland, the kingdom’s divisions carry consequences

beyond Isolde and Cuan. Bloomsbury lists the novel at 496 pages with a map, alongside ebook and audiobook editions. Official source. Image credit: Head of Zeus and Bloomsbury, official Son of the Serpent jacket. Official image source.
