The Mabinogion by Anonymous
5.0
This is an excellent and informative translation of a collection of Welsh tales.
Some of the tales are a little dull, and probably put the mediaeval courts to sleep, but you can hardly fault the translator for that, and in terms of Welsh history and an account of Welsh oral storytelling tradition, I think this particular text should be a staple in academic collections.
Also the tales that arent dull are hilarious and absurd and I will not stop telling my friends about them.
