Danu: The Lost Mother of the Celtic Gods by AJ Carmichael & Oisín Carmichael digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Hidden beneath the legends of Ireland lies a forgotten presence—older than the gods themselves. Danu, the mysterious mother of the Tuatha Dé Danann, stands at the very beginning of Irish mythology, yet her story has all but vanished. This book uncovers her lost identity through language, landscape, and ancient tradition, revealing a primordial goddess whose influence stretches from the rivers of Europe to the deepest layers of Celtic belief.

Inside, you will explore the origins of Ireland's divine race, the hidden meaning behind sacred landscapes, and the echoes of an ancient mother-goddess preserved in myth, folklore, and Indo-European memory. Perfect for readers fascinated by Celtic mythology, ancient civilizations, and the mysteries of forgotten gods, this journey into Danu's world offers a rare glimpse into the origins of belief itself—where myth, nature, and the divine become one.
