A tale of the
Morrigan, a Vision-Quest and the Lay of
Brighid
In this tale we hear about the
old Shannachie, Laoidheach, who visits a clan to bring them news.
He is encouraged by a lively young woman to tell tales of the Old
Gods. So he tells her all he knows of the Morrighan and takes her
on a Vision Journey. Afterwards, she asks him to teach her the Lay
of Brighid.

News & Views
We apologise for getting Cindy Spear's name
wrong in our last show, the Beltane 2009 Holiday Special, SP11. We called
her Cindy Ross instead of Cindy Spear.
We also offer support for our Contributing
authors who are offering Competitions. We have two to tell you
about - both of whom have excerpts from their books for us to
perform later on in the year.
Rhonda
Carpenter, author of The Mark of a
Druid has competitions on her website.
Christine Rose,
author with Ethan Rose, of Rowan of
the Wood, is running
a competition with a Kindle 2 as a prize which you can find details
about on their website.

- Kirins
by James Priest
Kirins: The Spell of Noan
A race of tiny, magical beings
lives on Earth today. They dwell in elaborate tree homes and
mysterious underground sanctuaries. Because of an ancient dispute,
however, humans are unaware of their hidden
civilization.
They are kirins.
For thousands of years they lived
in peace. But a deadly menace now threatens their existence. A
party of daring explorers, led by the wise magician Speckarin, is
sent on trained ravens to destroy an evil lurking a continent and
an ocean away. Failure of this mission would mean death to the
voyagers and the entire kirin race. But their success will depend
on aid from a truly unexpected source, human beings.
Fly with these adventurers and
witness today's world as it has never before been seen. You'll find
yourself looking to the skies for this mystical race of beings,
because maybe, just maybe . . .
You can access this Podiobook on
podiobooks.com or James Priest's website.
