Got it for my husband, he likes it. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Beautifully bound, entertaining collection of Celtic tales *by A***N on June 19, 2020* This is a beautifully bound, entertaining collection of Celtic tales. If you like this book, I'd also recommend WB Yeats' book on the Fairy Tales and Folk Tales of Ireland, as many of the stories in this book originally come from Yeats' book. (The stories in this book are slightly rewritten to be a bit shorter and easier to read, so they are not as well-written as Yeats' originals, but it's still a nice rendition. It's also interesting to have the Welsh, Scottish, and Breton tales included in this collection as well.) This book would make a great gift. The ribbon book mark is a nice touch, and each story is accompanied by a pleasant, Celtic-inspired illustration. ## Frequently Bought Together - Celtic Tales: Fairy Tales and Stories of Enchantment from Ireland, Scotland, Brittany, and Wales - Nordic Tales: Folktales from Norway, Sweden, Finland, Iceland, and Denmark (Nordic Folklore and Stories, Illustrated Nordic Book for Teens and Adults) (Tales of) - Tales of Japan: Traditional Stories of Monsters and Magic --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/33623623-celtic-tales](https://www.desertcart.at/products/33623623-celtic-tales) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-07-08*
