I started reading this for a bit of Irish mythology research, and found it really fascinating. I'm so intrigued by the layers of Irish legends and Christian influence that create such a strange set of stories. Yeats is one of my favorite poets, and it was fun to look at these stories through the lens of his work and poetry. Like many original fairy tales, these are bloody, dark, and definitely not for children, but if you're interested in such things, it's worth a read.
