This is a wild tale, rich with sorcery, pagan ritual, greed and intrigue. This ambitious and intriguing saga will be a hit with lovers of ancient history who want to decipher the mysteries of a vanishing world. Cornwell unlocks the mystery of Stonehenge's creation in 2000 B.C. A Must read.

I loved the book, even better than some of the other Bernard Cornwell books I've read. Almost as good as The War Lord Chronicles! Which are pretty near as good as it gets! The charcters really came alive as did their faith and their flaws. Truely a wonderfully well written book that any Bernard Cornwell fan would love, but also something that many Pagan readers would enjoy as well.

This was not as good as some of the other Bernard Cornwell books I have read. However, it was still a good book. I found I was not able to identify with the characters very well because of the setting in such a dark and uncivilized time. Cornwell's ideas about the origin of Stonehenge is interesting though. The book is worth reading, but not a must read.
