Reviews

[Caroline · Rating 4 out of 5]

I always love rereading this book and enjoy the fast paced quest.
Never realised it was Michael Scott before and never knew he was Irish as I love his Alchemist series too!

[Tim Sinnott · Rating 3 out of 5]

Solid early novel, can feel Scott's tone and love of Celtic myth very keenly but the pace is somewhat uneven, begins and ends strong.
