Liath Luachra: The Great Wild

In the 'Great Wild', no-one cares if you scream.

In the heart of ancient Ireland's untamed wilderness, a girl wakes in a forest clearing with nothing but a cloak and a bloodstained dagger.

With no recollection of her past or how she arrived there, she must navigate a mysterious landscape ...

And unravel a background as dangerous as the land itself.

From acclaimed Irish author, Brian O’Sullivan, comes this riveting tale of survival in an unforgiving landscape. Bristling with mystery and populated by predators – some far more dangerous than others – this is Irish mythology as you've never experienced before.

What readers (Goodreads)are saying:

‘A unique merging of beauty and action, O'Sullivan does an interesting take on fantasy with this prequel to his Liath Luachra series.’

‘Brilliantly structured, exciting, and touching, this is the most realistic Irish mythology series you'll ever read. ‘

‘The novel details how a frightened, traumatized, partially amnesic young girl was left to her own devices to survive in the Great Wild, not knowing how or why she came to be in that situation. This book, like all the author's works, is absolutely riveting and reeks of authenticity.’

‘We knew that Liath had a dark history, but this prequel helps fill in some of the blanks of her earlier life and how she became the woman warrior of legend.’

[Note: This book is a standalone prequel to the 'Irish Woman Warrior Series' - a dark and gritty retelling of ancient Irish mythological adventure]
