The Lost Prophecies

by Susanna Gregory, Michael Jecks, Bernard Knight, Ian Morson, Philip Gooden Book 4 in the Medieval Murderers series.

First published 2008

4.2(106)

In sixth-century Ireland, a manuscript of prophecies is created and begins a long journey through the hands of believers, sceptics and opportunists. Some predictions seem uncannily accurate, making the book both spiritually compelling and politically dangerous.

Across the linked stories, owners attempt to interpret, suppress or exploit the text, and violence follows whenever its words appear to threaten existing power. The collection asks whether the prophecies truly foresee events or whether readers create their own fulfilment through fear, ambition and murder.
