“I have no idea how accurate the information in this dictionary is because I know just about zilch about Celtic mythology. However, I do like the book based on a purely "how interesting is it?" criterion. While it may be read through from cover to cover (as I did in about two days), I wouldn't necessarily recommend it. Because it's a dictionary and because each entry is intended to stand along, many of the stories and ideas are repeated several times. It would be much better used as a reference book.

The entries are fairly short, ranging from about a paragraph or two as the norm to about a page as an extreme. Because of their shorter length, they obviously are not terribly detailed. Each entry gives a general overview of its concept and includes other terms and names that may also be looked up. In essence, it's a great place to get a vague idea to start with, but other books are needed if a more in-depth study is to be conducted.”
