Richard Lemieux Releases Children of the Celt—A Bold New Historical Novel That Spans Time, Spirit, and Legacy

New Orleans — 14, July – Debut author Richard Lemieux announces the release of his groundbreaking historical novel, Children of the Celt, a sweeping story about ancestry, faith, and the enduring human search for meaning. 

The novel invites readers on a spiritual and historical journey across centuries, guided by memory, mystery, and the echoes of those who came before us.

In a time when the past often feels distant and disconnected, Children of the Celt bridges the gap with an unforgettable narrative. Through the eyes of Edward—a present-day seer connected to an ancient lineage—and his spectral guide Kamin, Lemieux unearths stories long buried: of Celtic resistance, of sacred traditions lost to conquest, and of spiritual truths that still speak to today’s fractured world.

This isn’t just a novel for history lovers. It’s for readers seeking a deeper understanding. With vivid scenes ranging from Druidic forests to colonial New France, the novel reclaims forgotten wisdom and frames it as a guidepost for our times.

“Children of the Celt is about remembering what still matters,” says Lemieux. “In every generation, someone must carry the truth forward. This book is for those ready to listen to the voices of the past.”

Written with care, conviction, and a profound sense of moral clarity, Children of the Celt is a reflection on resilience, belief, and the power of memory to shape identity. As the world races ahead, Lemieux offers something quieter and more lasting—a reminder that no one truly walks alone. We are all, in some way, children of those who came before.

Children of the Celt is now available on Amazon.
