About the Story:
Irish mythology’s Finn Mac Cool, legendary warrior, lover, hunter, poet, beloved captain of the Fianna, leads his band of warriors in the defense of Ireland, facing supernatural challenges and thrilling adventures. Around the fireside or in the feasting halls of kings, Finn’s world is an immersive journey of love and jealousy, loyalty and betrayal, transformation and trickery —where great hunting dogs race through forests, fairy lovers weave enchantments, and boundaries between worlds shift like mist.
