I do really enjoy Irish mythology; it is a newer interest for me so I am still learning about it. Morrígu is a strong goddess from around 1500 years ago when she was imprisioned by priests who saw her as a threat. Fast forward to 1797 & she is back!! It was SO fun to see how Morrígu reacted to the world in the "new time"; the 18th century as well as how she adapted or more like; didn’t adapt. She is a strong Warrior and doesn't understand the passive docile manner of the "modern" women of the time.
Dosey is a darling lady, she is naïve and very much a woman of her time. A bit of a tomboy at heart, but forced by society to become a proper lady.
Dosey’s fiancé Cillian is an petulant & spiteful guy and I don’t think he’s the right man for her. Never had an easier time disliking a character before!
In the end it was well written but I was hoping for a bit more ... maybe there is a sequel coming & I will get what I want there!
I received an advance reader copy of this book and voluntarily provided an honest review.
