About this listen

★★★★☆ (4/5 – Mythological with Catholic Discernment)

The Demi-Gods by James Stephens is a lyrical retelling of Ireland’s ancient pagan legends, rich in imagination, humor, and moral tension. Drawing from pre-Christian myth, Stephens presents heroic figures who are powerful yet flawed—figures whose limitations quietly point beyond themselves. For Catholic listeners, this audiobook offers a fascinating contrast between pagan hero-worship and the fullness of truth revealed in Christ. Best enjoyed as cultural and literary myth, it provides insight into the spiritual hunger of the pre-Christian world and the human longing for transcendence fulfilled in Christianity.
