– INDEPENDENT BOOK REVIEW
An award-winning trilogy blending mythological fantasy and literary horror that retells ancient Irish myths.
The Rimwalker Series
The Rimwalker Series, or sin bandâ-kerdetis natus, is an award-winning trilogy of mythological, literary horror, and fantasy companion novels that explores Irish Mythology’s deepest wail-strains, from the battle-sage of the Cath Maige Turied to the Irish Creation Story of An Bradán Feasa, weaving Irish Myth with horror and Celtic stories with Shakespeare’s Hamlet and Ovid’s Metamorphoses.
Praised for its lyrical and dark prose, the Rimwalker presents an new eco-mythology to currach of our times, holding themes of colonialism, animism, grief and its apathy, and sacred geography. It holds our ancient Insular Celtic stories in a two-way dreamwalking: running back with the long—ago peoples in order to write a new way forward.
“A captivating retelling of Celtic mythology… a form of resistance against colonization and cultural extinction. Griffith keeps this folkloric tale alive and vibrant.”
