Some reviews of the German edition:
- Hard not to fall in love with the young bard. (amazon)
- A strong start. Authentic, visually powerful and very compelling. (lovelybooks)
- Accompanying Arduinna is clearly addictive. Very brilliantly written, captivating, realistic. (amazon)
- ... Within the plot the author puts into the mouth of her heroine, a young bard, wonderful wisdom stories, folktales and songs that bring us closer to the world and the worldview of our Celtic ancestors. You get here a historical novel of outstanding quality. It is not only a great read but a history lesson with great depth and feminine power. Those who like history and stories, who are connected to nature and are looking for their roots will find what they are looking for in this series of books. (amazon)
- Actually, I just wanted to have a quick look... Well, this plan didn't work out, I read this short novel (Moon of Beginnings) about Arduinna in one go. Now I'm looking forward to the first main novel around the bard even more... Very well written, super researched and just really builds a lot of desire to read on. I am already very excited, and look forward to my journey to the Celts. (amazon)
