Publisher's summary

For too long the people of Tír na nÓg have suffered under the dominion of the drunes; strange druids who have poisoned the land with their magic. Sláine has had enough of their tyranny and, through the Earth Goddess, he learns some shocking truths about the priesthood and his own future.

Now Sláine must unite the four kings of Tír na nÓg and use their mystical weapons as he and the Sessair tribe prepare for all-out war!

Featuring Colin Morgan, Gerry O'Brien, Ayoola Smart, Gemma Whelan, Stephen Hogan and a full cast, fans of Sláine and newcomers to the famed barbarian's world will be transported to a world of Celtic mythology and fantasy for an immersive listening experience like no other.

Critic reviews

"Indispensable for all Sláine fans" (Life of Die)

"Colin Morgan is brilliant as the brutal yet cunning Slaine, but it's Gerry O'Brien who steals the show as Ukko the Dwarf.... This epic audio hits the spot." (Starburst Magazine)

A Must Listen

I am an audio junkie and fan of both Stephen Hogan and Colin Morgan, so this listen was a no-brainer and a real treat.  I am new to the world of comics and was fortunate to be gifted a copy of the collector’s edition to view while listening to this stellar collection of talent.  From the performers’ seemingly effortless ease at inhabiting the characters and bringing them to life to the immersive sound effects and atmosphere-enhancing score…this was a delightful listen.

Probably should have started with the earlier ones

Unfortunately most of it is narration. Without the images there isn't much story to enjoy.

Title is misleading...Expected to hear ‘Slaine’ with the talented Colin Morgan more but he had very limited lines.

Title is misleading...Expected to hear ‘Slaine’ with the talented Colin Morgan more, but he had very limited lines. How come? The performances were wonderful. But the title should have been more accurately reflecting the audiobook such as: “Narration about Irish folklore”.
