The Dominion of Dreams is a collection of short stories written by the Scottish author Fiona Macleod and published in 1899. The book is divided into two parts, the first containing stories set in the Scottish Highlands and the second containing stories set in Ireland. The stories are heavily influenced by Celtic mythology and folklore, and often explore themes of love, death, and the supernatural.

Some of the standout stories in the collection include ""The Washer of the Ford"", which tells the story of a woman who is said to appear at a river ford to wash the clothes of those who are about to die, and ""The Laughter of Scathach"", which follows a young man who is drawn into the world of the Tuatha D����� Danann, the mythological race of Irish gods and goddesses.
