The Mabinogion Tetralogy

Summary

The classic fantasy series, with fully restored and corrected texts and a new foreword by Christopher Paolini

Evangeline Walton's Mabinogion Tetralogy is a remarkable achievement, a powerful work of the imagination that "ranks with the best of twentieth-century works of fantasy" (Publishers Weekly).

The origins of these works of ancient Welsh mythology are unknown to us. But in every form they've taken through the centuries, the Mabinogion tales have captivated and delighted readers.

In her lifetime, Walton reworked the four branches of the Mabinogi's collected legends into four now-widely beloved narratives: The Prince of Annwn, The Children of Llyr, The Song of Rhiannon, and The Island of the Mighty, which appear here restored and corrected to Walton's original magnificent texts.
