About this listen

To discover what is true about ourselves, we often have to take a quest and undergo initiations that test us to the core. In this Celtic Heroine’s journey, a young modern-day woman, through a series of mystical events, realizes that she was a Lady of the Lake in a previous life. Believing she is a normal person just like any other, Nina has no idea of the mysteries that await her in Britain. She was, as it turns out, fifth century Nimue, the one responsible for sealing Merlin up in a tree until the hour of his return. Now, she is the only one who can find him, and the world depends on it. Traveling back in time to Ynys Witrin, the Isle of Glass, she discovers more than she ever imagined possible.

Nimue: Freeing Merlin is a stand-alone novel, and also part of the Legends of the Grail series. The books do not need to be listened to in order, but all of the legends and folktales interrelate. The earlier books in the series focus on Celtic Goddesses and Heroines. Like the other books in the series, there are Celtic rituals, mystical practices and visualizations for the avid listener, who wishes to delve more deeply into Celtic and Arthurian mysteries.

Nimue: a fantastic self-discovery journey

I’m obsessed with this book! The narrator, Joanna Daniel, did an amazing job. Reading Nimue was an incredible experience for me and I really could relate to Nina and her struggles. The writer really knows how to enrapture the reader on this mystical adventure. It’s rich in folklore legends and I the romance is really sweet. Overall a 5/5 on every front, an absolute must read for those with a passion for Celtic and Roman folklore.

not Not so much a story, but rather an intense delve into mythos

If you are looking for a thrilling tale of love, triumph and magic ... you might be disappointed. After the switch from the first current time chapters in the beginning where the story arc is about the young woman about to find out who she is ... the story switches to Nimue’s transformation into the Mage Sorceress and lover protector of Merlin. You might keep waiting for the 20th century girl to come back into consciousness but she never does. The last 2 thirds of the book delve deeply almost smotheringly into every aspect of the pscho spiritual cosmic metaphor of the Great Goddess and all her realms and heroes and you soon realize that the “story” was written by a PhD. Truth be told ... Ill come back to this story with my yellow pad and other reference books when Im ready to truly understand the many layers of the mysterious worlds of the magical beings - but as “fiction” goes - it was TOO RIDDLED WITH details and I found myself saying - “this is tedious” in too many spots. Great narrator however, author knows her topic - adding to my magick book library however as opposed to my escapist fiction.
