The Chronicle of Ireland: Introduction, text
Author: T. M. Charles-Edwards
Publisher: Liverpool University Press
ISBN: 0853239592
Category : Ireland
Languages : en
Pages : 562
Book Description
The Chronicle of Ireland is the principal source for the history of events not only in Ireland itself but also in what is now Scotland up to 911. It incorporated annals compiled on Iona up to c. 740 - a monastery which played a major role in the history of Ireland, of the Picts to its east and, from 635 to 664, of Northumbria. Up to c. 740 the Chronicle is thus a crucial source for both Ireland and Britain; and from c. 740 to 911 it still records some events outside Ireland. The text of the Chronicle is best preserved in the Annals of Ulster, but it was also transmitted through chronicles derived from a version made at the monastery of Clonmacnois in the Irish midlands. This translation is set out so as to show at a glance what text is preserved in both branches of the tradition and what is in only one. -- Amazon.com.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 269
Book Description
In the war, it was simple, “kill or be killed”. Now myth-touched Kaja will have to put her life on the line and partake in a dangerous game with the enemy. After a series of setbacks and deaths, the Scáthanna finally have a lead on their mysterious adversary. A name alone is hardly enough, but Cathal has a plan, so when Lady Eithne’s orders put Kaja back in the center of Trinity’s troubles, the Scáthanna will make their move… hopefully before their enemy does. Yet, Cathal’s mission verges on suicide, and when death comes courting, Kaja is desperate to find another dance partner, even if it means making deals with the Snake’s servants. Pitched against the mastermind of manipulation, Kaja will have to risk everything. One false step in this dance, and the whole of Eireland will pay the price.
