Morgan LlywelynFor those with an interest in Celtic stuff or Irish history or history in general I highly recommend the author Morgan Llywelyn. I own a couple of her books and have read a few more, hoping to read them all. If you're interested here's a review of the books I have read. DRUIDS This book was the first of her's that I read and I fell in love with her style immediately. Reading it felt like I was in the time and involved in the action. Even if you don't know anything about Druids, Llyweln makes the book so interesting and her characters so human that anyone should enjoy this book.
LION OF IRELAND Again like Druids even those who know nothing of Brian Boru can enjoy this book. Many have called Brian "the King Arthur of Ireland" and this book certainly lets the strength of character that Brian must have had (dealing with the Irish who loved to fight amongst themselves and the Norse)but she also shows the man (and boy) behind the greatest king Ireland ever had.
FINN MAC COOL The mythologiacal hero of the Irish "Fionn" cycle, Llywelyn strips away the myth to show a truly human character. Brought to you by Morgan of the Fairies Productions
