Roar (WT Quick) Books in Order

W.T. Quick wrote the two Roar novels under the name Sean Kiernan. They are tie-in adventures set in the world of the television series Roar, a fantasy story that blends fifth-century Celtic settings with Roman occupation, Druidic prophecy, and supernatural threats.

The series follows Conor, a young Irish prince whose life is overturned after his family and the hopes tied to his brother are destroyed. He never expected to lead. But the Druids choose him to bring scattered Celtic tribes together against Roman invaders, the ruthless Queen Diana, and the mysterious Longinus.

Conor has a destiny he didn’t ask for.

The first book, Roar, works as a backstory leading into the television series. It focuses on Conor’s loss, the beginning of the conflict between his people and neighboring tribes, and the forces gathering around him. It also introduces the emotional cost of his new role, including his connection to Claire and the power working behind his enemies.

The setting is not meant as a strict historical version of Ireland. It is a heightened fantasy landscape of forts, forests, warriors, prophecies, and dangerous roads. Roman power is part of the pressure on Conor’s people, but the series also makes room for curses, ancient objects, and characters whose motives are difficult to read. That mix gives the books an adventurous, television-serial feel.

In The Cauldron, the danger becomes more immediate when the Celtic lands suffer under a curse that has thrown the seasons out of balance and left fields barren. Conor heads north in search of a legendary cauldron believed to be the only thing that can restore the land. The journey puts his courage and judgment to the test, especially when he meets Riru, a woman who may prove to be ally, temptation, or something more complicated.

The threat is both personal and political.

These are straightforward quest fantasies with a young leader at the center. Conor is often surrounded by people who expect him to become a symbol, even when he is still trying to understand what kind of man and leader he wants to be. Readers can expect battles, travel, mystical dangers, and a story shaped by the need to unite people who do not automatically trust one another.

Read Roar first for Conor’s origins and the wider conflict. Then continue with The Cauldron for a more focused quest story. Together, the books offer a short fantasy detour for readers who enjoy Celtic-flavored legends, rebels standing against an empire, and heroes learning to carry a burden that was handed to them.
