Title: Storytelling Par Excellence
Product review: As a descendent of Niall of the Nine Hostages, Irish folklore has always fascinated me, but it has always been somewhat arcane. This tale unlocks some of the mysteries and makes the legends of both Patrick and Osian very readable. The characters in the story are very real and believeable. The retelling of the adventures of Finn Mac Cool are enchanting, exciting tales. The author has skillfully woven the stories of St. Patrick with the legends of Osian and Finn. Patrick is portrayed as a human being, full of faults, and concupiscence. Despite periodic self loathing and inability to forgive himself, he remains convicted of God's love for him and his ultimate redemption. We poor humans, even in the 21st century are able to identify with him. I pray that someday I will meet both Patrick and Osian in heaven or Tir Nan Og, the Land of the Ever Young.
