Sometime in the early 6th century, Brendan set off with his crew on a
seven-year voyage to find the legendary Island of the Blessed. Strange
creatures attacked from the air and ocean. Once the voyagers almost froze to
death and once they found themselves the target of giants on a burning island.
Their journey was a mixture of great difficulties and wonders. It was such an
epic adventure that many believe Brendan must have reached America one
thousand years before Columbus!
