Review: «An engaging saga, rich of characters and with an ingenious plot. The events are full of pathos, so many challenges to be faced. A book that certainly has the perfect characteristics. A saga that will be appreciated. It's enough to leaf through the first pages of the book Celtic Saga Book I, in order to understand important aspects. First of all that it is a novel with a strong historical print and grafts of fantasy. A second thing that the book is well treated. The first book of a saga, this novel makes us enter a world to the most unknown, that of the Celts, where sacred and profane they get mixed continuously. Magic and mysticism, human and divine live together daily.»
Synopsis: the book starts from the golden age of the Celtic culture. To the chieftain of the Eagle's clan of the Gauls Cenomani, in the 5th century B.C., it is predicted that a great danger is coming, and it might annihilate his people. In the 1st century B.C., his descendant, Etitovius, understands that that threat is approaching. The legions of Rome, in fact, are invading their territories. To escape to return to their old lands, or in the Celtic Gaul, serves to quite a little, since Caesar is arriving also there. The new heir of the clan, Gwenvael, is forced to run away, facing wars, personal battles, and adventures, in which the magic and the mystery will give life to unique moments. The Gaul warrior will not be alone in the fight. To help him to face enemies and the eternal fight between the good of and the darkness, there will be Tormaid, the woman druid of Britannia, and Ailìs, the princess of Arainn, the island kingdom of Ireland. They will have to balance the three energies: Love, Strength, and Knowledge. Will they be able to do it?
