The Warrior s Princess
£5.49
Too long! - Much better than her last offering Daughters of Fire. However, I did at times want to throttle the heroine for being a drip and constantly ignoring the advice of her friends.Also this book was about 100 pages too long, and I ended up speed-reading the last third of the book.
Barbara Erskine does it again - another gripping book. - I have been a fan of Barbara Erskine for around 14 years now and always look forward to her new books. This one as not let me down. The dual stories of Eigon from the past and Jess from the current are both gripping and keep you reading from front to back cover. Cant wait for the next Barbara Erskine book! Thanks.

disappointing...... - A long awaited book, turned out to be a disappointment. It dragged, and I found myself skipping paragraphs. A wonderful author has let herself down with this one. The historical background was well written and interesting, but the characters?.... weak and boring!
brilliant - this is my first barbara erskine novel , and as soon as I read the synopsis , i felt i just had to read it... I finished it in a day ... can t put it down, the story is so engaging , feel a bit long sometimes in the middle , but it soon pick up and just hooked you till the end... I m now excitedly browsing for more of her book...
Celtic Connundrum - I have read all of Erskines previous books so eagerly await any new offering.Only trouble is she is so formulaic, its the same novel plot over and over again.I wish for once she would come out of her comfort zone and surprise me.Good points , learning about Celtic Britain and Roman Times with a mix of early Christianity thrown in.Bad points, plot all over the place.Characters very annoying and having read so many of her works i sadly guessed most of what was going to happen.The ending after nearly 500 pages was weak.Ive given it 4 stars because she is a good story teller but Barbara stretch yourself next time and come up with a different plot for once.
