The story of The Táin (cattle raid) is well known, but this new version of the tale makes the story accessible to younger readers. Re-told by Celtic scholar Liam Mac Uistin, the story is revealed to the reader in easily-understood language that brings the famous tale to life. The story is told at a cracking pace and contains all the elements of an epic tale – love, hatred, war, peace, greed, heroism and, ultimately, fate.
