About this audiobook

The Tuatha Dé Danann emerged from the mists of myth as the most extraordinary people in the island’s legendary past. Remembered as the Children of Danu, they arrived bearing sacred treasures, profound wisdom, and powers that transformed the world around them. Their stories tell of magical cities, divine heroes, powerful goddesses, and epic battles against rival peoples who struggled for control of Ireland. Through these ancient traditions, a rich and captivating vision of Ireland’s mythological origins was born. Drawing on Ireland’s oldest legends, medieval manuscripts, folklore, and historical traditions, Children of Danu: The Arrival of Ireland’s First Gods explores the origins, arrival, and legacy of the Tuatha Dé Danann in unprecedented detail. From their mysterious homeland beyond the northern seas to their conflicts with the Fir Bolg and the Fomorians, this book follows the unfolding saga of a people who would become gods, ancestors, and symbols of Ireland’s sacred past.
