About this audiobook

Are you ready to enter the fascinating world of Celtic mythology?

Do you know that the Celtic culture and folklore, though with a primarily Irish origin, has widespread branches across the globe - as far as the British, Scottish, and Welsh cultures of Europe, and right into the Euro-Asian territory of Turkey?

We live in a modern world that explains most myths and legends. However, there is still much that cannot be explained. To better understand who we are, it is essential to know where we came from and the cultures of our past.

Celtic mythology is one of the most intriguing European mythologies because of its great benefits, which are based on its high sense of heroism, adventure, heroism, romance, and magical prowess

Despite the pervasive cultural and literary influence of the Celts, shockingly little is known of their way of life and beliefs, because very few records of their stories exist.

In this book, for the first time, James Gaiman brings together the best stories of Celtic mythology.

This audiobook covers all this and much more, including:

  • Irish Myths: Children of Lir , The Wooing Of Étain, The Cattle Raid of Cooley, The Salmon of Knowledge
  • Scottish Myths: Blue Men of Minch, Sawney Bean, Myth of the Selkie
  • Breton Myths: Sword of Arthur, Arthur’s Giant
  • Welsh Myths: The four branches of Mabinogi and stories of Lyr’s descendents
  • And many other amazing tales!

Open a door to another world...a world of adventure, heroism, romance, and magic.

Explore the legendary mythos and fantastical stories of one of the World’s Oldest Mythologies

The Celtic isles have existed for nine thousand years. Not three. This book is only a portion of Celtic history as the researcher has obviously been unable to locate other factual information before this period. The earliest known written document from Ireland is eight thousand years old and it is a page of written law from the Celtic isles where by it states that the King of the Celtic isles is above all other kings and governments within it's territory. The word 'government was written in ancient Gailige and in modern English so there would be no future misunderstanding as to who is in charge. Bring on the return of the High King.

I'm not sure I've ever been so taken up by a book in all my life. Listening to it being read, late at night, felt like I was being carried away on an ancient dream of another lifetime and I remembered who I am, and where I've been. I'm not sure that anyone else's experience will be like mine, but I recommend this precious story, from a beautiful soul who has suffered so much, and yet has been gifted to us, for hers and our, healing. So grateful.

Great listen. I've been looking for some light listening, I love mythology and the Irish mythological stories are a interesting listen. Look forward to listening more from the same author.
