4.0 out of 5 stars
Ancient Britain brought to life., 9 July 1998
By Casca - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Winged Man (Paperback)
This is a novel about Bladud, a mythic king of Britain, set sometime between 800 and 500BC.Legend has it that he was descended from the Trojans.Spurred on by visions of the beautiful Imogene Bladud travels to Greece, where he finds love and adventure.After hearing about the flying exploits of Daedalus and Icarus he develops a passion to fly.He returns to Britain and eventually becomes king.He faces treachery from those close to him, and invasion from the north.At last he does fly, in a manner of speaking.On numerous occasions in this story the veil between this world and the Otherworld is pierced.Bladud sees and talks to gods and goddesses, oracles and beings from the Otherworld.The author weaves into her story many elements from Greek and Celtic myth and legend, as is explained in helpful notes.The storyline is exciting, and the period is brought vividly to life.Nitpick: the ending is a letdown.
