Dark tales rooted in Welsh landscape and gypsy storytelling unfold through seven vivid, mythic quest and magical adventures, inviting readers into a dark, atmospheric tradition.
Reprint of the winner of the prestigious Tir na n-Og Award for children's books. Seven short stories, in which are found vivid retellings of the gypsy tales collected from the Welsh gypsy family the Woods of Caegwyn. Including quest stories and magical tales, rich with the mystery of the Welsh landscape.. REVIEWS: "Some of the tales rival the grimmest of the timeless Brothers Grimm stories. Gruesome, vengeful, and intriguing. Dark Tales from the Woods is a distinctive read which grips the imagination as only a good well-told story can. Shiver and enjoy." John Millen, Sunday Morning Post; "One of the UK's finest storytellers." BBC Radio 3; "Another cracker from the prizewinning storyteller... these tales will captivate audiences." John Jones, The Western Mail; "Dark tales weaves a magical spell of literary mischief that will make this book a hit with both adults and older children." Beckie Jordan, The Big Issue; "A tremendous collection of traditional tales." Books for Keeps; "Bizarre, dreamlike and chilling, these red-blooded folktales were told over 100 years ago under the stars and by the light of the moon in rural Wales." The Story Museum; "These stories, retold beautifully by Daniel Morden and meant to be read out loud, hide important lessons for life underneath their seemingly simple settings. No wonder they have lasted for two hundred years. Dark Tales from the Woods won the Tir na n-Og prize for children's literature in Wales, and well-deserved, too. Brett Breckon's terrific illustrations add to the aura of magic. Highly recommended for children of ten plus." Historical Novel Society; "Dark Tales from the Woods is an aesthetically beautiful book - from the eerie illustrations scattered across the pages, to the stories those pages tell themselves. It's also quite short, something you might bring along on a camping trip to tell around the fireside... Overall, a clear 5* book!" Storygraph
