All the Sweet Tomorrows

The second book in the Skye O'Malley series, 1984

This book is dedicated with much love and great respect to the first hero I ever had, my father, David Roger Williams. You're still my hero, Daddy!

The world has laid low,and the windblows away like ashesAlexander, Caesar, and all who werein their trust;Grass-grown is Tara,and see Troy now how it is-And the English themselves,perhaps they toowill pass!

– Anonymous Irish poem, 17th or 18th century
