I highly enjoyed listening to In the Region of the Summer Stars, first book in the Eirlandia series. So much so that I immediately began the next book in the trilogy, this one. I have several books in my Audible library and I tend to not read the same author or books in a series back to back but I definitely made an exception here. I needed to know what was going to happen to Conor and everyone else.
There's life, epic journeys, betrayal, brotherhood, battles, becoming more, showing of true colors.
I finished this one and started the third book, In the Kingdom of All Tomorrows.
I can definitely recommend this book, trilogy and author.

I generally take a long time to read books because I'm a slow reader. I generally enjoy taking my time to savor a good story, especially stories with lush settings. But I couldn't help it with this book. I flew through it, tossing aside the savoring bit in an uncharacteristic manner. So much about this series echoes my all-time favorite Lawhead series, The Song of Albion. Lawhead is a master of books centering on Celtic mythology, and this series is definitely an example of why. And for other readers out there, is it just me, or do Donal and Fergus remind you of Merry & Pippin from Lord of the Rings? Those two crack me up.
Fabulous setting, rich details, enjoyable characters, and a story you'll want to keep reading.

I am such a huge fan of Stephen Lawhead -- and the current Eirlandia series is classic Lawhead. Legend and lore, epic Celtic landscapes, battles, love, intrigue, magic. It's all here.
This is a classic second book in a trilogy. It doesn't start anything. It's doesn't really finish anything -- but it's still a well-told story that sets up the next book very well. I will say this is a satisfying read.

Good storytelling, with good pacing, and fun characters. The Celtic mythology twist on history was cool. I enjoyed this book.
