5.0 out of 5 stars One of the Finest, Mar 12 2000

By	Mel Saxby (England) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Warrior Scarlet (Paperback)

I first read Warrior Scarlet as a youngish teenager, knowing absolutely nothing about it, and was immediately captivated by it. It rates as one of the finest novels I have ever read, as a child or an adult. The writing is beautiful, poetic, and ultimately very moving. The novel gives a very clear picture of life in the Bronze Age, and is very visual in its language, and the Charles Keeping illustrations complement ithe text perfectly. I recommend this book to anyone who likes early historical fiction, whatever age they are - this book has stayed in my memory for many years, and is regularly re-read. Give it to an imaginative child, they won't be disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Hop aboard this time machine!, Nov 24 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Warrior Scarlet (Paperback)

I thought this book was a wonderful trip back into the beginning of the Iron Age. Anyone interested in the ancient Celts or in prehistoric Britain should not miss this book. The story is easy-to-read, yet moving, and has a wonderful message about overcoming handicaps and the power and beauty of friendship, determination, and inner courage. It's a great book!

1.0 out of 5 stars Lousy, perdictable story
I was made to read this book in school, and found it impossibly dull and overly descriptive. The plot is terribly perdictable, and slow paced. Read more
