Most of the time the Moontide Bridge lies deep below the sea, but every 12 years the tides sink and the bridge is revealed, its gates open for trade. The Magi are hell-bent on ruling this new world, and for the last two Moontides they have led armies across the bridge on "crusades of conquest". Now, the third Moontide is almost here, and this time the people of the East are ready for a fight... but it is three seemingly ordinary people that will decide the fate of the world.

Hours of Frustration
It was disappointing, to say the least, to listen to this (re-issued, as I learned after purchasing) book by Susan Wiggs. I've read/listened to at least a half dozen of her books that I tried to carefully select and did enjoy -- her Maiden of Ireland wasn't remotely one of them.
What could have been told in, say, 9 chapters, she stretched out to 19 long slogs of totally irritating, frustrating interpersonal relationships that kept spinning in place...until the very end when Susan Wiggs must have given up and just thrown in the towel on this one, ending in more ridiculousness -- uuggh!
The narration was horrible: a slaughter of so-called Irish; gawd-awful English supposedly spoken with an Irish accent; ridiculous differentiation of voices, including making a child of four sound like a young girl of twelve. I wish I could find something positive to say about the narration, but, fail to find anything.
When, in the introductory words, it was revealed that Maiden of Ireland was a re-issue of a previously-written book, I thought, good, that sounds like well-placed effort by the author to take something she thought worthwhile and re-work to make better. I was so wrong. I really wish that weren't the case.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
