Fergus mac Róich
"Táin Bó Flidhais" is not as well known as the "Táin Bó Cuailnge", but the story it relates is equally as complex and intricate. It includes many of the most important characters of Irish saga literature who appear in many of the cycles of legends from the period. Queen Maedbh, the Queen of Connacht, is one such individual, as are Cú Chulainn and the irresistible hero, Fergus mac Róich.
