I love that the book has different themes; forbidden love, revenge, mythical legends, loyalty and duty, the list is long. I like that there is a strong female character. Plus the story is well researched with factual information relating to gods and kingdoms. Though am not a big fan of legends, this is a book that i would encourage anyone to read because it is an awesome read and a good author to boot. :) :) :) :) :)

Ancient history novels are always a good idea. The review is good enough for me to put this book on my to-read list.

This sounds like an exciting book to read with the forbidden love and all its adventure. This might be great to have a movie based on this book.

The novel sounds enjoyable. Through with somewhat difficult character names, its worth trying.

I really love the review. I appreciate the structuring of the plot setting by the author. The presentation of the character-the role played by the female character. This hostorical fantasy is more interesting. I will love to finished reading this book soon. With the review, I cheerish the author's effort in relating the culture of Celtic and Romance in brief. The book has what it take to be a book. I give it 4 out 4. Thank you very much.

Extremely well-written review. I appreciate how the complex storyline is presented without giving anything important away. The cast of characters seems enticing and political maneuvering is always intriguing. The biggest draw for me is the comparison of the two cultures religious beliefs. As a fan of old Celtic stories and myths, it is fascinating to experience the way the characters approach their heritage and family mythos. While some readers have difficulty switching from one character's thoughts to another's, the flow of the story is smooth and moves along. I definitely want to add this book to my bookshelf.
