From an award-winning fantasy author and avid musician comes the fascinating sequel to Master of Music, winner of the 2024 IPPY Audiobook of the Year award, and 2023 IAN Fantasy Book of the Year award. Cry of the Kestrel is the second book in "The Bardic Isles Series."Gifted with the power of the Bards of ancient Eire - a power not even he understands - Kaelin is given the golden opportunity to learn from the other four Masters of the Bardic Isles. He'll spend three months with each of them: the Instrument Master, the Master Flutist, the Voice Master, and the Master Harpist. A false allegation turns the apprentice's journey into a living nightmare, one which threatens to take away everything ... his instruments, his robe, and worst of all, his own Master. As Kaelin learns the hardest lessons of his life, the music of Bardic Mountain pulls at him, and his sleep is disturbed by visions. Can he escape the injustice of Bardic Law and the mysteriously escalating pull of the mountain?
