This is quite an interesting story although the descriptions of awkward and bizarre rituals can send shivers down one's spine.

The issue of relatives fighting over a throne is already hackneyed; however, this story has very original elements like Catrin's powers. I already read a few pages; I hope to have some free time and finish it. Thanks for the review.

The story of this novel was deep and the characters were replaced in a proper way and made the story interesting. By reading this novel, the reader can feel inside the atmosphere of the novel. By reading this novel, I was able to learn positive things and it was great.

I love a good book with a female protagonist, and if it involves blood and magic, then It's a must-read. I'm intrigued and will like to know how the story ends. Thanks for the review.

Thank you for sharing such a detailed and enthusiastic review! It’s clear that Apollo’s Raven is not only richly immersive but also meticulously crafted to transport readers to the intricate world of ancient Britain. Linnea Tanner’s attention to the historical and cultural contrasts between Roman and Celtic societies, as well as her ability to weave romance, mysticism, and political intrigue into a compelling story, sounds like a masterful approach to historical fantasy.
