I think the author could have done better descriptions of ancient civilizstions, it's still a good book for young adults though.

I'm not a big fan of fantasy but I don't hate it either. Sometimes these books are so helpful to create your own world, but when it comes to Apollo Raven I would award 3 out of 4 stars since it didn't met my expectations.

I really liked the world building and the magical system in this book. I've read a lot of fantasy and sometimes they all just seem very similar. I was pleasantly surprised with this book.

I had a hard time making it through the free sample. Seemed like a "Harlequin Romance" meets Hercules kind of thing. I couldn't take it serious. Is it a truly historical fiction or just a corny story that leads to erotic scenes?

One of the things I love more of this book is the perfect combination of different elements like history and fantasy with a hint of mythology. In particular, I was drawn by the Celtic component and, why not, by the romance too.

I am intrigued by the book and how the character will be able to cope up with her challenges in life. The fact that this is based on true story, it can enlighten other people who have the same experience. I give it 3 out of 4 stars.

Overall,I think this book is a good read.What I like most about the book was the love between Catrin and Marcellus. What I like least was the opposition by both families.I would recommend this book to others because the romance in it is intriguing.

I read the review of the book and based on the review I didn't
agree with some sentiments featured in the book.

I don't usually read a lot of historical romance, but I do find the concept of combining this with mythology interesting. I may have to give this book a chance and see how I like it!

I may not have read the entire book but i did read the free sample of it. It seems interesting enough but unfortinatly it is not my type of story i dont think i would read the entire book. Every aithor deserves credit for their work though, but some stories just dont apeal to all the audience members.

I enjoyed reading Apollo's Raven. It had a lot of action and kept me wanting to continue reading the book. I liked the main characters of Catrin and Marcellus the best. Even though they are on opposite sides of politics, they manage to see and love each other for who they are as a person. I feel like they are the two out of all the characters, who I can trust. I, of course, like Agrona and Marrock the very least of all the characters, because of their gruesome, evil, and hideous deeds. I rate this book a 4 out of 4 stars because even though it is a complex story with some history of the Romans and Celtics, it is full of action and personal interaction with the characters. I would recommend this book to people who are interested in historical fiction and fantasy. The book has romance, magic, mysticism, and history, all of which should interest a wide range of people.

I haven't read the book as yet but based on the review that I have read, it seems to be very fascinating for a historical fiction. I especially love the romance between Marcellus and Catrin.
