Parts of it dragged on, and the main character seemed to act out of character. I appreciated that Llew and wife were married before they slept together, but could have done without the descriptions. I especially disliked the ending. No one ended up where I wanted them to (except the bad guys.) I don't mind the author bringing in a Christian element, but it was done too suddenly and in a very odd way.”

“I did enjoy this book; however, there were just some really dark parts that I could have gone without. I felt I experienced enough of that in the first two books of the series. I was a little let down by the ending. Without giving anything away, it just seemed to stop too abruptly. I guess I always like stories a little more neatly wrapped up. Overall a very good series! I look forward to reading more books by Stephen Lawhead.”

“I wasn't expecting to like this series as much as I did. The whole series is wonderfully balanced, with compelling characters, action, romance, and a slightly supernatural aspect of Celtic history.”

“I enjoyed these books but they weren't my favorite Lawhead series. The way that the Celtic history was woven into the story and the depiction of another land (which effects the spirituality of our own world) was intriguing. However, I found some of the attempts to meld the ideas of Christianity and the substance of Celtic pagan religion a bit distrubing at times. And while all religions (as well as all believable lies) contain fragments of truth, so that you can see shadows of the true God everywhere in this corrupted world, I put down these books slightly disappointed. Lawhead's main plot revolving around the war and the redemption of Albion were clear, but the more subtle attempts to connect this redemption to Christianity seemed a bit like murky waters. Overall, the story is well worth reading and historical detailed. Well written in classic Lawhead style.”
