"The Coming of Lugh: A Celtic Wonder-Tale Retold by Ella Young" is a beautifully illustrated tale crafted in the early 20th century. This work fits into the category of a retelling or adaptation of a mythological story, drawing from the rich Celtic traditions and folklore. The narrative centers around the character of Lugh, the Sun-God, and explores themes of identity, belonging, and the struggle against oppression. The story begins with Lugh being taken from his homeland by Mananaan Mac Lir, the ruler of the ocean, to a magical realm. As he grows stronger and more beautiful, he becomes increasingly aware of the troubles in Ireland caused by the invading Fomorians, prompting his desire to return home. Equipped with the powerful Sword of Light, Lugh embarks on a quest to aid his people, the De Danaanans, who are suffering under Fomorian rule. Upon his return, he demonstrates his diverse talents and leadership, rallying his kinsfolk and ultimately leading them to victory against their oppressors. The tale weaves together elements of magic, heroism, and the inherent connection between Lugh and the land of Ireland. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
Reading ease score: 79.1 (7th grade). Fairly easy to read.
