an Trodai
Description
A raiding Norse pirate rapes a young girl in 9th century Connacht, Ireland, and leaves her for dead. Shamed by her pregnancy and wanting a life without the label of Norse for her child, Ceara makes her way south to Ceann Coradh. On her journey, she has a dream about Scathach, a mythical warrior woman. Ceara dies giving life to her son, Scolai, and the story of her dream will follow her son and his heirs for centuries to come.
Scolai grows up to be a Dal gCais warrior in the service of Lorcain, the King of Tuadmumuh.
His son, Daigh, and his grandson Laoghaire follow in his footsteps to become Dal gCais warriors.
Conall, the son of Laoghaire, is a true warrior, called a giant by some due to his size and might, and known to be a ferocious fighter with both his axe and sword. His skill with his weapons, combined with a violent temper, frightens friend and foe alike as he becomes known across the island.
A great warrior, Conall is a man who knows peace, battle, anger, loss, then peace again. The cycle continues as he fights under the banner of a king who unites his nation, and after the death of the king, Conall rises to lead his family-his tribe-through difficult times and establishes a clan that will endure.
