In ancient Scotland, a tyrannical new lord of the herd plans complete dominion over the animal world, but deer lore promises a hero, who has a bond with all creatures, including man, and who will ignite an epic battle and free the herd. Published to great acclaim, including a rave from "Watership Down" author Richard Adams, "Fire Bringer" tells the story of Rannoch, a fawn born with the mark of the oak leaf on his forehead. According to an ancient prophecy, it is this fawn's courage that will lead all the deer to freedom. Chased from the herd by stags, Rannoch begins a treacherous journey in search of the truth. He knows that one day he must face his destiny--but will he live to fulfill it?
