The story of the Young Pirate Queen has come to an end for now. Produced by Roundstone Media and written by Tríona Campbell for RTÉjr, it tells a new tale from the life of Gráinne Mhaol.
Known more as the fearsome pirate who sailed the seven seas in the 16th Century, this podcast wonders at what started her on that swashbuckling path.
It all starts at the top of the article with
Episode one: A forbidden tale. Grainne tells her young granddaughter the story of how her brother Donal once vanished.
Episode Two: Magic has taken Donal. When no one believes her, Grainne and her best friend Flaherty sneak out of the castle to find the one person they think can help.
