Amazing Art

If you love Celtic style art... dear lovers of Celtic lore, ... and would to know of the ancient history of Ireland/Eire, than this is a great book for you. While, the information is good, there is more to be found in other books on the subject of the history and prehistory of the Celts. It is the art that makes this book really great. It is amazing. Truly, amazing. We've never even seen anything else quite like it. It stands on its own. kyela, the silver elves

Book of Conquests

This book was revolutionary when it hit the stands. It still is. Take a visionary artist like Jim Fitzpatrick (who is immersed in the styles of Mucha, Hal Foster, and the Book of Kells) and give him the chance to edit the Irish epic "Lebor Gabala" into a meaningful whole and you have one of the most dynamic synthesis of myth and image to emerge in the last half of the 20th century. It may be said that it is an ethnocentric project with an egocentric edge, but since that "edge" is competently rendered, then the project can be praised for it's daring. Bringing a myth into a new age is no small feat and to do so with such flair can only recommend itself to those who seek a Celtic Revival.

Beautiful Keltic artwork

What a truly beautiful book! If you like Keltic artwork, fantasy, and mythology this is one of the best! While the book is VERY hard to find and rare, if you can get it, it is worth the time!
