About the Author
Betty Rhodes has spent many hours studying ancient history, astrology, the origins of religion, New and Old Age writings, and philosophy. With the quest for truth burning strong within her soul, Betty delves into writing with a constant supply of fresh ideas and theories that amaze the reader in "Keeper of the Celtic Secrets".
Excerpt. © Reprinted by permission. All rights reserved.
Amongst the early Celtic people of the Northern Isles, peace and harmony existed across the land for many years, however in 500 C.E., a powerful religious leader either drove out, or murdered, most of the Druid families, eliminating the priesthood and the secrets they held or so it was believed.
The author wishes to introduce to you, one amazing family from this ancient priesthood that yet survives in spite of the many factions that have fought against them throughout the years. Their ancestors consisted of a lone family of priests and priestesses, who, after being driven from Ireland, lived a long and arduous life in secret; however, their anonymity will soon end with the release of this book. Determined to reveal to the world, the ancient secrets she holds in her possession, a courageous priestess from this brave family, has made the decision to expose the contents of her St. John familys ancient journals.

I loved the book. Can't help but to think there may be some fact mixed with fiction here as it implies on the back. I was interested in the mention of RH negative blood types and biblical ties. It was a great read.

I'm not finished reading it yet, but have already come across many theoretical flaws that convince me that the book is actually fiction. Israel is not descended from Enki via relations with Eve, that is how Cain came about. Israel is related to Enki via Noah, whom Enki fathered. The author, or protagonist has developed a theory that makes no sense and is confused on many story lines. It seems more contrived out of a Brit-Am Druid loyalty, than actual events or possibilities. Additionally, data wasn't discussed until more than half way through a less than exciting book. And apparently the publisher uses spell check to edit their books as there are many misspellings and grammatical errors.

Reviewed in the United States on December 26, 2006
I find this book hard to review without being unkind, and it's not in my nature to be so ! It starts off well, with an air of mystery, and is in novel format, although the back cover says, "Written as fiction, but is it ..." and "So much of this story is based on the actual real-life experiences of the author that it is hard to discern which incidences are true, and what was written as fiction." I got into the story quite well in some ways, until I got to the alien abduction bits, then I'm afraid I found it all so unbelievable that I more or less switched off. This was not helped by the errors of fact which raise their heads every now and again, for example she relates how the heroine of the yarn (I can't refer to it as anything but a "yarn" !) has a premonition about the sinking of the large passenger ferry, the "Herald Of Free Enterprise" off Zeebrugge in Belgium in 1987. First of all she describes the ship as a "barge" when it was actually a very large passenger and car ferry trading between continental Europe and the United Kingdom. She describes the seas at the time as "cold, choppy and treacherous" which "prevented rescuers from providing help" and the rescuers having "no choice except to stand by while 188 people yielded to an icy death" This is pure fiction ! As a seafarer myself I am very aware of the facts of the "Herald of Free Enterprise" disaster, and the seas were indeed cold, but not icy in March ! Neither were the seas choppy. In fact it was almost flat calm with only a light easterly wind. The ship capsized because the bow doors were kept open as the ship left harbour, and as the wreck was so close to shore rescuers were on scene almost immediately to save the majority of the people on board (539 people on board - 350 saved). Errors of fact like this, which appear to have been made for dramatic impact, make one immediately suspicious of the rest of the book. Even more annoying however, were the number of typos, spelling errors and just plain bad punctuation throughout the book. The constant use of commas in the wrong places is a real pain, as it makes the sentences often not make sense. Frankly, whoever did the proof reading of this book deserves to be fired, and never be allowed to do the job again ! (Pontius Pilot for example !) About half way through the book, the author tries to bring together Biblical material with the Sumero - Babylonian myths of Enlil and Enki, and represent them as extra-terrestrials who "created" a section of the human race. This was where I seriously began to lost interest and the rest of the book was a struggle. If this book is meant to reflect fact, it fails miserably, and if it is fiction it is so badly written that one loses interest about halfway through. I did wade through it to the end, but it was an unenlightening experience which I would not wish to repeat. Fact or fantasy ? For me it was neither. It just descended slowly into complete farce !

I read this book and loved it, I did not have any difficulty reading or understanding what the author was trying to say. I would highly recomend this book to anyone who loves to read. The story line really kept my interest , I'm awaiting a part two. Thumbs up to you Betty Rhodes. Kathleen

I recommend this book to a general audience who likes a good mystery flavored with a touch of realism. The book will stay in your mind long after reading it. Have heard good reports so far on this book of fiction mixed with real-life experiences.

A charming book, written as fiction but compassing similar themes to Zaccharia Sitchen, I especially loved the insight into Blood Type 0 individuals. I've read similar books, but this one brings a lot of themes together.
