Summary: Great Book
Comment: I read this book only because another book in the series sounded interesting and this is the first of the trilogy. It has a very slow start, but when it picks up I couldn't put the book down. It is a great story and I would recommend it to anyone. (I also recommend buying all three so you don't have to keep running out to the store for the next one!)

Summary: Wow!
Comment: You know, I've just read the new Harry Potter. And a couple of other books that I'm not proud of. And I really had nothing to say about any of them, one way or the other. But I wanted to write something about this book. Gosh, ITS SO GOOD! Thats that!
I was so impressed and pleased to have stumbled upon this book.
I just happened to pick it up; I read one of Lawhead's others before and remembered that other reviewers had said that other book wasn't one of his best. So I decided to try it and apparently found his best. Geez.
The ideas that it has, they're so savory. Could it be that the fairy world is just a go around the cairn away?
His logic, argument, writing style, magic, whatever it was, had me convinced that there truly is another world out there. And it is beautiful. Imagine that world----that world with out our modern conveniences---the most profound perhaps, imagine that world with out our modern sound. We are always bombarded with it.
That first part of the book is there to convince us that there is another mysterious realm. Its a fast pace to get there, too.
Simon, the main characters friend, is an intriguing enigmatic fellow. We think we know him so well until the last of the story.
The next part of the book is gaining acceptance and appreciation of that other realm.
And the last part is fighting to keep it whole and sound. It seems an uphill battle---can't wait to find out in Book 2.
You can not die and not have read this! I couldn't believe this book hadn't won any awards---if I had one to give, I would. Perhaps this review will suffice.
On to Book 2! The Silver Hand! Oh, and if you go to Stephen Lawheads official website, you can get a pronounciation guide to all our favorite characters! Yay!

Summary: The Start of an Addiction
Comment: I believe that this was the first of Lawhead's books that i read. And, now that i have traversed his literature more thoroughly, I see the characteristics of Lawhead shining through to make a brilliant story in the heart of another world. The story (characteristically for Lawhead) begins slightly slowly. In the middle of Oxford England weird things are happening, and honestly I didn't really get it or get into it until Oxford was far behind. As soon as the England part was over I was thrust into gripping suspense. I could not put this book down. The series quickly became my favorite trilogy ever--and subsequently my favorite books ever--with the beautiful description of a lost celtic world, enthralling story of a boy's journey into manhood and heroism, and driving plot. This is a must read for anyone who loves adventure, suspense, mythology, learning, or just a gripping page-turner. Two thumbs way way up!
