Am only going to review one of the Ketiad books, but merely because they are, one and all, wonderful stories. I began reading them years ago, when I was a young woman, just barely out of my teens. One of the great tragedies of my life was losing my original copies in a house fire some 20 years later...yes, they ARE keepers.
The characters are multifaceted, believable, and, for the most part, very likable. There are no black-or-white generalizations, every individual is drawn with ...more

Wow, I read all three of the first Keltiad books at one sitting, (of course spread out with a bit of sleeping in between). First of all, I found the lanquage completely intoxicating, the story engaging, and the whole Keltic universe fascinating. I had no idea who Patricia Kennealy was, all three books came in to my store at the same time and looked interesting so....
Anyway, I loved them and have re-read them several times so these I will NEVER get rid of unless I get better copies - haha...more

The first Patricia Kenneally book I ever read, and I feel it possibly is the best she ever wrote. The language she uses to draw you into the world of Keltia is wonderful. The characters are human but also impossibly noble...I love it!

This is a fascinating series of books written by the wife of singer Jim Morrison. It takes place in the future in space, but it is a Arthurian legend. I really like it.

it is the second book in a trilogy based off Keltic legends only set in a different part of the Universe. It is fun and exciting.

I would believe in the divine right of kings and queens if we had queens like Aeron. A wonderful mix of Keltic lore and spaceships.
