When Eddie Lenihan's Irish Tales of Mystery and Magic was first published in 2006, Alan Clarke's quirky illustrations perfectly complemented Eddie's take on the stories of Fionn Mac Cumhail and the Fianna. Unavailable for several years and much sought after, these beautifully illustrated stories will now be available in a collection of three gift editions. This edition contains the stories 'Fionn Mac Cumhail and the Feathers from China' and 'Fionn Mac Cumhail and the Making of the Burren'. These tales of ancient Irish heroes and druids tell of strange and peculiar adventures when creatures of the night walked the earth and magic was everywhere. Stunningly illustrated, these hair-raising stories capture some of that magic.
