Finn Mac Cool by Morgan Llywelyn
A vivid, mythic retelling of the life of the great Irish warrior and leader Fionn mac Cumhaill, tracing his miraculous birth and secret fosterhood, the moment he gains supernatural wisdom by tasting the Salmon of Knowledge, and his rise to command the Fianna. The narrative follows his heroic exploits and battles, the betrayals and rivalries that shape his leadership, and the tragic love triangle with Gráinne and the warrior Diarmuid, while also exploring his relationships with figures such as his son Oisín and the otherworldly powers of ancient Ireland. Rooted in the Fenian Cycle, the story blends action, romance, and folklore to portray the fading of an age of heroes as history and fate encroach on legend.
