I was inspired to write this book during a visit to the lush landscapes of Ireland, where the whispers of the past seemed to echo around every corner. Conversing with locals and scholars alike, I realized that while many were fascinated by their mythological heritage, there was a common thread of overwhelm and disconnection due to the perceived complexity of these stories. This revelation struck a chord with me, as I remembered my own initial encounters with Celtic mythology-equally fraught with fascination and frustration over dense scholarly interpretations.
