About this audiobook

The ancient culture of the Celts, with its folklore and fairytales, has sparked the imagination of many. The mythological creatures, stories, and legends have their enchanting flair and have certainly been the topic of many historians and scholars. It is time to dive deeper into some of the best-known myths and epic ventures of the gods, goddesses, and magical realms from the British Isles. You will hear about things like:

  • Cultural backgrounds and the way it integrated with the Celts’ lives
  • The four cycles of Irish Mythology. This may sound surprising to you
  • The Selkies and their connection to the Celts
  • The coming of Finn and all the drama around it
  • The Fianna of Erin and the reason why this is such a popular story
  • Different tales from the Ossianic cycle

And much more! Celtic mythology is worth studying, and the moral lessons and interesting side notes on each of these myths can be enlightening and enriching.

I admittedly did not make it far in this. The reviewer's completely incorrect pronunciation of Irish words and names was impossible to overcome. It shows a complete lack of respect for the source material, as well as the culture and language from which it came. There is an abundance of sources for correct Irish/Gaeilge pronunciations available; I suggest that someone sends the publisher a few of them.
