Notice Epithetical Books The Hounds of the Mórrígan
There are many books I read as a child that I've thought to pass on to my own children, but only rarely have I discovered the same sort of books as an adult. The Hounds of the Morrigan absolutely fits into this category. It's longer than many of those favorite childhood books, but it contains just the right amounts of adventure, humor, and sweetness. And if it proves too long for the children in my life to read themselves, I think it'd be tremendous fun to read aloud. If you enjoy fond memories

Let me just say, if you haven't read this charming, adventure packed book, you are missing out! I suppose it falls into the category of fantasy, technically, but it differs from standard fantasy in a lot of ways. The protagonist, Pidge, is quite young and the main relationship dynamic of the book is between him and his younger sister Brigit, who is, as he describes her, "five years old and five years daft."

A children's book of some 670 pages - a massive accomplishment for any child. I generally enjoyed reading the book because it was set in modern Ireland, and I was able to imagine the children, Pidge and Brigit, galavanting around the streets of Galway, and struggling through their adventures over the mountains and lakes that I had the opportunity to visit earlier this year (thus, my motive for picking up the book). On the whole it was a fun read, though slightly tedious because the author piled

I'm not entirely sure what I think of this now that I've finished.

On the other hand, it seemed a little long. It's not that it dragged in any particular spot, or that there was any place where I could say, "That wasn't important and could have been cut out." It's just that 600 pages of following two young children



THIS BOOK IS AWESOME (or at least that's what I said when I was 10).

The Hounds of the Morrigan is one of the best children's/YA fantasy novels I .ever read I wish it was better known outside Ireland, the place where it is set. It deals a lot with Irish/Celtic Myths. This makes it special and sets it appart from the fantasy books you usually find, which are often more or less just variations of The Lord of The Rings or Narnia.The story is set both in modern-day Ireland and in a fantasy world through the two protagonists, ten-year-old pidge and his little sister
