IRELAND: 1st century A.D. A time of strife and treachery. Political ambition and inter-tribal conflict has set the country on edge, testing the strength of long-established alliances. Meanwhile, mysterious war parties roam the forests and a ruthless 'Tainted One' is intent on murder.
In the secluded valley of Glenn Ceoch, a disgraced druid and a woman warrior have successfully avoided the bloodshed for many years. Now, the arrival of a pregnant refugee threatens the peace they've created together. Run or fight, the odds against them are overwhelming.
And death stalks on every side.
The most authentic Irish adventure series on the market, the Fionn mac Cumhaill Series by author Brian O’Sullivan is a gritty and authentic retelling of the great Irish epic. Gripping, insightful and utterly action-packed, this is Irish mythology/ fiction as you’ve never read it before.
A 2016 SPFBO Competition finalist and Irish bestseller, this book also includes the following extra content:
* a glossary with explanations on ancient Irish cultural concepts
* a pronunciation guide and links to an online audio pronunciation guide
Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor: Brian O'Sullivan was born in county Cork, Ireland. On completing a degree at University College Cork, he went on to travel extensively. Now based in New Zealand, he runs a small publishing company (Irish Imbas Books) with his family but returns to Ireland on a regular basis. Brian writes fiction that incorporates strong elements of Irish culture, language, history and mythology. These include literary short stories (The Irish Muse collection), mystery thrillers (The Beara Trilogy), a contemporary version of the Fionn mac Cumhaill/ Fenian legends (The Fionn mac Cumhaill Series) and the much-praised Irish Woman Warrior Series (the Liath Luachra Series) which has been adapted for the screen. Although he writes predominantly for an Irish audience, Brian's unique style, attention to historical accuracy and humour has meant that his books have become firm favourites of readers all around the world. His monthly newsletter 'Vóg' (with monthly articles on his writing and creative projects, aspects of Irish culture and other strange stuff) can be found via his website at: http://irishimbasbooks.com.
