A barely remembered childhood. A search for enchanted treasure. Can a gentle man discover his past and be reunited with his birthright?

Ireland, 500. In an ancient land where forgotten tales and mystical wonders abound, a man with a fragmented past embarks on a quest to reclaim his true identity. Fingin, a gentle soul plagued by an abusive childhood, ekes out a meager existence as a fisherman, hiding his inner kindness from the world.

A Delightful Faerie story

This story is a mild and uncomplicated story for children. I enjoyed the interaction between Fingin and the goddess Brigit. I enjoyed the first interactions between common people and Christians. The story has little violence and much to remind the Irish of their past.

The inclusion of Irish myths into this story added a needed depth to this story. But Fingin, the main character, seemed rather blah and too forlorn. I liked his two animal friends much better. He had adventures on his quest but overall the mood came across as melancholy and uninspiring.

Talking animals

Even as a young man I enjoyed this kind of story. The author struck a fun storyline and adventure with the protagonist. More of a YA approach, however, a quick read. Thanks!

A Lonely Man on his Own, a Few good Friends, and a Host of Lives Changed

Fingin is such a lonely soul. Abused by family, his voice lost, and living alone – he exists in a self-imposed solitary confinement. His magic allows him to have a voice with animals, which leads him to his first friends. They go along with him to fulfill a goddess’s quest.While Fingin is a simple young man, his story is rich and emotional. The book allows you to feel his loneliness, his pain. There is so much to relate to in his story for each of us: loss of family, physical ailments, loneliness, and not really knowing one’s place.

A dog, a donkey, and magic – what more does a boy need!

Fingan is alone in the world. No family, no friends, no home. His nomad existence is fueled by necessity. Ever since his grandmother gave him the “faerie gift” and took away his ability to speak normally he has been persecuted. If not for his ability to speak with animals, he would have no one to talk to even though most animals are poor conversationalists. The day he saves an enormous wolfhound from drowning in the river is a day to celebrate Bran is both a friend and a protector. Forced to flee again, Fingan and Bran encounter a strange woman in the woods who sends them on a quest to find Fingan’s grandmother and his legacy. She gifts them a donkey to carry their supplies, which Fingan promptly names Sean and the threesome set off on an adventure filled with danger, adversity, and magic.This is an excellent series; fanciful, but with action and good characters. The plot is well developed and Christy Nicholas makes the world that Fingan lives seem real. I really enjoyed the book and cannot wait to read the next book in the series.
