Finbar the Dragon Defender of the Forest is a modern allegory in which corporations, religion, and values are questioned and examined. Set in the land of Telyn, where druid chieftains, who are like CEOs of powerful multinational corporations, are in charge of the government, a government where the corporate values of wealth, greed, and power have replaced the human values of love, kindness and mercy. And the national religion is based on psychology and not spirituality.

Still, there is hope because one grove of druids led by Mog Ross and William the Harper follow the true Celtic values of a nature-based spirituality where all of nature is inspirited.

From this grove of druids comes a young chieftain, Kevin Irvine, who with the help of Finbar the Dragon Defender of the Forest, fights back against corporate culture to return Telyn to a relationship with nature and Celtic spirituality.
