The one thing that really makes a good book for me is when the author leaves a spark with you. It’s also made me want to look into some more stories about Boudica, she seems a very strong and complex character who I’ve not read much about. I can see my book pile is going to grow after being introduced to some authors I’d previously not heard of. I also felt having so many authors involved and the writing style of the book brought something to my eyes which was unique. In conclusion I felt everything worked well with this book, it was full of action, fast paced and a joy to read. There are some complex characters and relationships in this book and I particularly loved Sorcha & Andecarus. The way in which the tales are told add to the growth of the characters as throughout the book you see them through someone else’s eyes and I found myself liking people I originally didn’t.
