In this children's sequel to the Robert Burns classic poem, 'Tam o' Shanter', Fiona and her wee brother Finn are swept into a strange mystical world to embark on a perilous quest. They must find Meg's tail which has been taken to the dark and evil land of Dracadonia. The tail is now in the possession of Morbidea, the beautiful but deadly Druid Queen. A powerful and potent magic has been bestowed upon the tail, allowing it to be used as a key to the mystical portal known as The Yett of Abandoned Time. Legend has it that Morbidea will use the power of the tail to enter the mortal world. Fiona and Finn learn of their extraordinary link to this deadly threat and must make the brave decision to try and prevent it. Accompanied by Meg and their border collie, Kirsty, the children dare to enter Morbidea’s world where they are catapulted into a tsunami of danger and magic. In a land populated by weird creatures, an army of undead warrior nuns and an eccentric troublemaking alchemist their quest unfolds. The children’s courage grows as they face their destiny. For Fiona and Finn, life, if they survive, will never be the same again.
