Reviews
'Intriguing, wide-ranging and highly informative ... Rankin's strength is his evidently wide, admiring and scholarly acquaintance with more recent Celtic mythology, ethnography and literature.' - Times Literary Supplement

'The book is an absolute delight for those who are interested in ancient Celtic civilization. In fact, it is a long time since I have enjoyed a book in this field so thoroughly.' - The Irish Democrat

'This book is a must-have for the serious Celtphile.' - New Age Retailer
