Actual Rating: 4.5/5 stars
Review: This was a great read. I’ve been a little obsessed with Celtic mythology as of late, and this only aids that obsession. The way MacCana brings the Celts and their stories to life is really well done. I’m only giving it 4.5 out of 5 stars due to the fact that my version of the book is a little dated. Other than that, it’s a great read. (
