About the Author: Since 1980, award-winning author Morgan Llywelyn has created an entire body of work chronicling the Celts and Ireland, from the earliest times to the present day.
Amergin and his tribe decide to fight for their adopted country, touching off a conflict that will change the face of Ireland forever.
But when they arrive on Ierne, they are confronted by a mysterious people who will one day fuel legend and myths: the Tuatha D Danann, people of the Goddess Danu.
Joined by his warlike brothers and tribe, Amergin leads his people across the seas to their new home.
All this changes when Amergin\'s new servant, a shipwright named Sakkar, tells him of Ierne, a green and fertile land to the north.
In bleak Iberia, his people would rather do battle than make great art, and Amergin can only dream of a home free from bloodshed.
Amergin, chief bard and druid of the tribe of Milesios, lives in a world without poetry.
