Summary: Great Britain during the time of the Druids & Romans
Comment: This is a colorful story about the pre-Christian period in Great Britain during the time of Roman domination of the country. It is obviously very well researched. Rich in historical detail, this fictionalized account of the time period depicts some Druid rituals and the country's resistance to Roman rule. It also depicts the view that Rome had that it improved upon the quality of life for citizens of countries they ruled. Not only did Anya Seton write colorfully about the time period, but also wove a bit of mystery, a lot of suspense, as well as a love story. All wrapped up in one, this is a thoroughly satisfying read. I'm keeping my copy forever. Buy one, you'll be glad you did!

Summary: Interesting tale of Roman Britain
Comment: This is an enjoyable story set in Roman Britain. While the dialogue of this book (originally published in the mid-1950's) sometimes reads more like the script of "Leave it to Beaver" rather than language one might attribute to Romans and Britons, it is a fun story to read. The Druid religion and the lives of people in Roman legions and in Britain itself are stereotyped to an extent, but that does not prevent one from enjoying this romantic adventure tale.
