Overview of the book: For over two thousand years, tales of the
mythical hero Setanta have held a central place in Celtic lore,
comprising the first vernacular epic in Western Europe. Setanta's
courage and combat against kings, queens, amazons, and invaders
remain an inspiration to his native people. "Setanta: The Warped
One" gathers and galvanizes Setanta's adventures for a modern
audience.The story is narrated by Mael Moro, a twelfth-century monk
charged with transcribing the legends of Setanta and his fabled
world for posterity. Moro's epic moves between Setanta and the
vivid characters surrounding him: the celebrated King Connor, the
barb-tongued Briar MacMalice, the Amazon Queen Maeve, and many
more. We follow Setanta from birth to adulthood as he navigates a
world of warring factions, intrigues, and deception, always with
one goal at heart-to protect the province and people of Ulster's
famed Red Branch Court.
