I am very excited that this channel has been your introduction point to the wonderful Welsh collection of tales, known as the Mabinogi (or Mabinogion). I hope you will enjoy the next ones that I intend to write adaptions of. :)

Wonderful to hear the tales of my homeland narrated with such enchantment. Thank you for such brilliant content

You are very welcome, Liam. For me, The Mabinogi are the greatest collection of ancient stories and I love them dearly. If you are pleased with mu adaption of them, I am glad. It is my hope that in the near future I will adapt at least the three other main stories of the 'Four Branches'.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to my friend, Cheyanne. :)

I am particularly glad that you enjoyed this one. Don't forget parts two and three of this retelling of ancient myth.

Your voice is amazing I felt fully transported into the world of ancient Wales, I would love to hear you read the rest of the mabanogion!

Fraser, I really appreciate your words, thank you. I hope to create some more adaptions to complete Four Branches of the Mabinogi. My favourite story in the cycle is 'Branwen, Daughter of Llyr', which I expect will be my next work. :)

Fraser Cairns, I really appreciate your thoughts on this, thank you. It may come as no great surprise that I love the four branches of the Mabinogi. I hope to return to writing adaptions for the other three principal tales. It is likely that the next one that I will write will be a retelling of 'Branwen Daughter of Llyr' as that one is my favourite. I hope you get a chance to listen to some more stories on the channel. If you look in the Play Lists, you will see a selection of stories that are written by me.

Captivating reading! I'm just discovering the Mabinogion, and this is a wonderful way to do it. More please!

I am looking forward to producing a version of my favour of the tales of the Mabinogi, which is 'Branwen, Daughter of Llyr'. I am so glad you are familiar with these classics. They have been a massive source of inspiration for me.

Very good Huw thank you for another great "bedtime story" although I'm still awake, I listened to it and also loved the new images and adored the different characters and Celtic variations in your voice.

This cluster of tales, referred to as the 'Four Branches of the Mabinogi' are very close to my heart, and many of the place names are real places, which are dear to me. I am glad that you had a chance to listen. :)

Even sweeter the third time round

Thank you very much Emma. It's great to see you visiting. :)

It looks like you did new art for this? It’s very Romance novel style which is very symbolic since mythos was our ancient tales of romance, adventure, & magic! Such talent Hew; I hope this year brings you more subscriptions!🎉

That gives me further incentive to write stories, based on the other three main branches of the Mabinogion, as this collection was just based in the first branch.

This is great. I found it while searching for a reading of The Gododdin. More please.
