genre fiction,historical,historical fiction,literature and fiction, The Voyage of Mael Duin: A Celtic Novel, (In Dublin, in the vaults of Trinity College Library, there is a medieval manuscript called The Yellow Book of Lecan. In dark sepia, hand-lettered Old Irish, the story of The Voyage of Mael Duin begins: 'Mael Duin was of the tribe of the Eoghanacht of Ninuss... The child of a fierce warrior and a young nun, Mael Duin was given to a queen who raised him as her own child, a chieftain's heir, until at the age of sixteen he accidentally discovered his true parentage. In seeking his true kin he found his mother insane and his father unavenged killed by raiders. Until he has avenged the death of his father, he is outcast, of lower status than a murderer or a lunatic. With the help of a druid, he builds a huge curragh and sets off on the western sea in pursuit of the raiders.'The story moves deftly from a sharply-observed and authentic description of Ireland at the time of the Viking raids to enter the half-world of Celtic voyage mythology... an evocative memoir of the Celtic dream-time.'Tim Severin, author of The Brendan Voyage).
