Life...The Way You Dream It
Amazon Review
Someone purchased my book off Amazon and actually took the time to write a very detailed and favorable review.

Ancient Celts Meet Captivating Story Line, August 22, 2009
By Megan Sutherland (Higginsville, MO)
I decided to buy this book after reading its review in Renaissance magazine. William H. Russeth brings ancient characters to life, from sensitive Eoan to Thuringa (the ancient version of a thug). Russeth delves deeply into the everyday life of a person living in this time, from blacksmith to Druid to Ard Ri (King?). While the main conflict involves the ownership of of a sword forged froma meteorite, human relationships are also a main focus. Although a love story, Fires of Belenus is by no means "cheesy" or "mushy". True to the time and culture, violence and blood shed are a part of this great read. However, Russeth includes this aspect of everyday life in such a way that is realistic, yet able to stomach. Lovers of history and Arthurian Legend, I highly recommend Fires of Belenus.
Thank you Megan, if you are out there.
Nothing like a great review to lift your spirits!
