5.0 out of 5 stars Five Stars is not enough for The Eagle and The Raven!, 28 Dec 2002

By	Kimberly Gelderman (Spring Lake, MI USA) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Eagle and the Raven (Hardcover)

This sweeping saga of Great Britain, known then, as the ancient Albion, chronicles the lives of several outstanding defenders of freedom. First is Caradoc, the son of a Celtic king, who tries to unite the people of his country against the invasions of Rome. It is also about his sister Gladys who stays behind to fight the Romans, in an already lost battle, while her brother escapes to fight them again. She falls in love with a Roman depsite her strong Celtic ties. Finally, it is about Boudicca (everyone spells it differently) and her devotion to carry on the work of Caradoc.

This book was one of the best I have ever read. I couldn't put it down at times (even though I had to force myself to so I could go to sleep at night). You are brought back into time and feel as though you are with these people, silently watching and cheering on the Celts, while at the same time, cursing the Romans and their greedy, grasping ways. It is a long book but it doesn't seem so as the pages fly through your fingers as you become enveloped in the Celt's cause against Rome. The book is wonderfully detailed with ancient pre-medievalism descriptions of people, places, etc. You just have to buy this book, and read it, to believe just how incredible it really is. The characters are so three dimensional and emotional that you feel their pain and their triumphs with unbelievable passion...

If you enjoyed this book I think you would also enjoy "Warrior Queen" by James Sinclair (also out-of-print but an excellent read), and "Ashes of Britannia" Warrior Queen Series by Haley Elizabeth Garwood. These titles delve deeper into Boudicca's fight against Rome.

5.0 out of 5 stars A tale wonderfully told, 25 Feb 2005

By	Denise E Smith (New Zealand) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Eagle and the Raven (Paperback)

I read this book some years ago and have re-read it since. To this day it remains one of my favourite renditions of the tale of the invasion of Albion or Britain as it became under the rule of the Romans. It's one of my all time favourite books in general.
The fight of the Celtic tribes such as Catuvellauni, Trinovantes and Iceni etc, of Britain to keep out the invading Romans was very moving and the characters of this era came to life in a way I've never found in any other of the same genre. My heart literally ached for them, and in the last chapters I felt a deep sense of loss. Well written and lingers in the mind with it's beauty and saddness.
