Synopsis

The dramatic retelling of Ireland's epic tale continues. Acclaimed historian and storyteller, Randy Lee Eickhoff, continues his modern translation of Ireland's most thrilling legends with The Destruction Of The Inn. Part myth, part heroic saga, and part literary tour de force, Eickhoff again brings to life the Ulster Cycle. In the tradition of the seanchai who passed down these tales from generation to generation, and the seventh century monks who finally transcribed them, The Destruction Of The Inn, is a beautiful, powerful tale.
