I always preferred romance from the gods it was always intriguing to me growing up. I would love to get this book. Nice review but a little too lengthy

I will definitely have to give this one a try. So many people gave this one high ratings. It sounds like a hit and something I'll like. I appreciate the review.

It would be interesting to read a book set in 24AD. I love roman history and I believe I will enjoy this book. Congratulations on BOTD!

The cover design of this book makes it easy to believe that the book is set in 24 AD. I can't went to get a taste of this myth-centered tale.

Apollo's Raven seems like an interesting read, and the book seems to contain a lot of twists and turns as Catrin and Marcellus try to acquire information from each other in order to aid their people but end up falling in love, and I hope Catrin's powers did not only help her see Marrock's plan but also to help stop him. You gave a good review of what should be expected in the book.

I just love Celtic mythology; it feeds my imagination. This book seems like it might turn into an epic saga with its inappropriate love affairs, and blend of history, myths, and magic. I can’t wait to read this one! Thank you for the detailed review!

It reminds me of Dagger's Destiny by Linnea Tanner, the love affair between Catrin and Marcellus was an unbreakable one. I love how the author employed the plots in this novel. It was an insightful and interesting work of art from the author. Superb book and review.

It's amazing to me when authors can convincingly write about different eras. Talk about world-building! I will add this one to my reading list.

Thankyou for such a detailed review. You break down a lengthy and complicated historical fantasy plot so that even those who are new to the genre, like me, can follow along.
