The Celtic World of Morgan Llywelyn spans twelve books covering ancient Celtic and Irish history. The series begins with The Horse Goddess (1982), set among the early Celts, and runs through to Brendan (2010), about the legendary Irish monk. In between, Lion of Ireland follows the rise of Brian Boru, Finn Mac Cool retells the Fenian legends, and Bard traces the Irish odyssey myth.
Llywelyn’s approach blends real historical events with Celtic mythology and oral tradition. She treats myth and history as equally valid sources for understanding the Celtic world, and her background research gives the novels an authority that has earned praise from both Irish historians and fantasy readers.
