Designed to be a companion album for Steven Barnes' novel Lion's Blood, Heather applies her unique talents to melding Eastern and Western musical styles creating an Afro-Irish blend that brings you into the world of Lion’s Blood to explore the rich cultures of this alternate history.
The adventures of Aiden O'Dere, an Irish boy captured and forced into slavery in this strange new world, are reflected in this musical journey from Eire through Bilalistan. Heather's original Celtic music is enhanced by a Middle Eastern influence as cultures combine and conflict in battles for love and freedom.
