When the mist rolls across the mountains of Wales, some say the hunt still rides.
Hidden within the ancient landscape of Wales lives one of Britain's oldest and most haunting legends: the Cŵn Annwn
These are white, red-eared hounds of the Welsh Otherworld. Hounds of the wild hunt.
In A Tale of the Cŵn Annwn, author Tony Malone brings together mythology, history, poetry, and original fiction to explore these mysterious spectral hounds. Beginning with an accessible introduction to the medieval Welsh sources-including The Mabinogi and The Book of Taliesinthe book traces how the legend evolved through centuries of folklore before giving voice to the Hunt itself through evocative stories and poems.
Journey across mist-covered mountains, forgotten churches, lonely commons, and ancient forests where the boundary between our world and Annwn grows thin. Meet phantom riders, lost children, oath-breakers, wandering kings, and the timeless guardians who pursue not vengeance, but balance.
Beautifully illustrated with the author's original lino-cut artwork, this collection is both an introduction to one of Wales' greatest myths and a celebration of the landscapes that continue to inspire it.
Whether you already know the legend of the Cŵn Annwn or are discovering these mysterious hounds for the first time, this collection invites you into a world where mountains remember, forests listen, and the Hunt never truly ends.
Listen.
The mountain is quiet.
But only because it has one eye closed.
