4.0 out of 5 stars children's book, Jan 4 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Brian Boru: Emperor Of The Irish (Mass Market Paperback)

this is the children's version of "Lion of Ireland" which it is a good preview of, it is still a good book but leaves out a lot of details. If you liked this book but you want a more complete story read "Lion of Ireland"

3.0 out of 5 stars well hung..., Oct 14 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Brian Boru: Emperor Of The Irish (Mass Market Paperback)

this book was great at leaving out a lot of details. there was almost no description to what was happening. the book left a lot hanging or it was intended to let your imagination run wild with the book. i like imagining the characters and things but when almost the whole book is left up to my visual imagery in my head i really dont like that. the book was decent over all for like beginning readers but anyone with an iq over one would have enjoyed the world a little more well painted in thier head!

5.0 out of 5 stars outstanding Piece of work, Mar 19 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Brian Boru: Emperor Of The Irish (Mass Market Paperback)

This book is one of the best I have ever read. It will keep you hooked all the way through. The best part was taking truth and turning it into something very exciting. This is coming from someone who doesn't like to read. Brain Boru Fought his way from nothing to high king gathering loyal followers form all parts of Ireland. Quit wasting time reading this and find a copy of the book.

5.0 out of 5 stars I liked the book because it was action-packed.
The author has a way of writing that made me feel concern for the main character. After reading only a few pages I was drawn in. Read more
