5.0 out of 5 stars This book is something that will truely astound you, April 7, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: LION OF IRELAND (Hardcover)

Morgan is descriptive, historacly accurate, tuning this book into it's fine detail. It really makes you feel like you are part of the action, you cheer when Brian conquers and cry with all his suffering and loss. You get to know the main characters, and sence Ireland and the way it was when Boru reigned.

Absolutely incredible is how I would describe this book. Morgan Llywelyn's descriptions of Brian Boru and life in his camp bring the subject alive. It was like being there! You HAVE to read this book!

A fantastic journey through the magical-mists of Ireland into the realm of its first king. Morgan Llywellyn surely must have walked the land in the time of Brian Boru to have been able to capture the essence of that era. It will always remain the most prized book in my library.
