Mabinogion, the Four Branches
Summary
After reading, recording, and listening to the Four Branches of the Mabinogion, I'm amazed that the world isn't full of manga comics, Hollywood blockbusters, best-selling novels, sticker collections, trading cards, and fantasy role-playing games based on this quite astonishing collection of Welsh tales. The breadth and imagination of these stories is really quite amazing - How many other stories can boast such a heady collection of wizards, body-swapping, bitter curses, deep revenge lasting for generations, a giant, a cauldron of immortality, murder plots, princes, kings and even pig-embezzlement? Not to mention a woman made from flowers by two wizards as a wife for a man cursed by his mother from ever marrying another human being. A man who can only be killed by a spear which has been crafted for one year and this while he stands with one leg on a bath and the other on the back of a young goat? The Mabinogion is a collection of tales, told over generations, recorded in two manuscripts; Llyfr Coch Hergest (The Red Book of Hergest) and Llyfr Gwyn Rhydderch (The White Book of Rhydderch). Translated into English by Lady Charlotte Guest, they contain a large number of tales from the Welsh storytelling tradition. Strictly speaking, however, the term Mabinogi (Mabinogion was mistakenly taken as the plural of Mabinogi by Lady Charlotte Guest) refers to the Four Branches recorded here. Complete with an introduction by Welsh author and audiobook narrator Colin Jones. Cover art by Howard David Johnson.

Coed y Brenin [King's Wood]
Summary
Croeso i Aberarthur, pentref bach cysglyd yn y De. Mae llawer o bobl yn byw yma, ac mae stori gyda phob un. Credwch chi fi. Welcome to Aberarthur, a small sleepy village in the South. Lots of people live here, and each has a story. Believe you me. Apparently Aberarthur is a fictional village, in that it exists only in my mind. The funny thing is that as you listen to this book it will exist in your mind too, but entirely through the medium of Welsh. Please note: This audiobook is in Welsh.

Cwm Gwrachod [Witches' Valley]
Summary
Croeso i Gwm Gwrachod, cwm bach diniwed yn y De. Welcome to Witches' Valley, an innocent little valley in the South. Written by the author of the best-selling Welsh learners' novel Coed y Brenin, this book should help you expand and improve your Welsh, while being both interesting and entertaining. It should be suitable for those who've done a year or more of evening classes, although we'd hope that more advanced learners would also get a lot out of it. The events, people and places in Cwm Gwrachod are imaginary, in that they exist only in my mind. The funny thing is that as you listen to this book they will exist in your mind too, but entirely through the medium of Welsh. Please note: This audiobook is in Welsh.
