Tales of Irish Myths - Benedict Flynn - Audio Book

Tales of Irish Myths - Benedict Flynn : Here the line between the fantastical and the real is blurred: mortals and immortals live strange entwined lives; nature and high magic exist side by
side. It is Ireland under its old name, Erin, a country of ancient gods with fading powers, who dwell invisible in fairy mound palaces, waiting for a chance to meddle in the affairs of men.

In the Children of Lir, Erin is a land of harsh enchantment and tragedy - even for a sea god, whose innocent children are so cruelly cursed by their foster mother. In the epic tales of Cu Chulainn, it is a proud realm of valiant heroes and near-impossible quests for love. In the stories of Finn Mac Cool Erin is a kingdom of glory where Finn leads his band of warriors, the Fianna, through their perilous adventures in defence of Erin's shores, to a place in Irish legend forever.

By listening to this audio book we realize very quickly that our spirit returns at very high speed to the time when our parents told us legends.
