Reviews
"What's amazing to me about this tale of Boudica, Britain's legendary female warrior, is the pitch-perfect fluency with which Manda Scott brings it forth . . . like an eyewitness recounting real events that she saw and participated in. Her reimagining of this age, when the tribes of Britain clashed with the legions of Rome, includes interior monologues, multiple points of view, dreams, visions, ecstasies, and interlocutions with the dead, all of it utterly convincing and compelling. . . . A stunning feat of the imagination and an absolute must-read for lovers of historical fiction." -- Steven Pressfield, author of Tides of War and Gates of Fire "The first in an ambitious trilogy about the life of Boudica…. There is no shortage of juicy love triangles in all kinds of exotic configurations." -- Publishers Weekly "Scott has written a suspenseful historical novel that will entertain fantasy readers and those looking for a strong character who can fight her own battles and still show her vulnerability. Oaths, loyalty, and tradition are at the heart of this imaginative tale." -- Booklist "Scott weaves the stories of Breaca and Ban into a complicated and satisfying pattern. Definitely not a tired old retelling of a legend, this novel is beautifully written and lovingly told, filled with drama and passion. Scott takes great care to draw secondary characters and evoke the feel of first-century Britain. Highly recommended." -- Library Journal "This is the best sort of historical fiction -- exciting, full of a sense of how different times feel, and also intelligent about historical issues; Scott knows that at the point when historical events happen, they seem as if they are open chances." -- Amazon.co.uk "Hailed as the new Mary Renault.... A truly remarkable story full of wonderful atmosphere... Intensely exciting, a tale of passion, courage and heroism against huge odds, which is intensely moving." -- Publishing News (UK) "Dreaming the Eagle is a powerful novel about Boudica, one of the most intriguing and mysterious women in history. Scott as done her research, and the mix of real images and her imagination has created a completely believable world. Her characters are so true to life that they all but jump off the page, and the story is alive with the love, deceit, wisdom and heroics of humanity. Read it and enjoy!" -- Jean M. Auel, bestselling author of The Shelters of Stone "A masterpiece of historical fiction, Scott's richly detailed novel brilliantly captures the driven, passionate soul of the Celts. The lyric prose captivates, the characters ensnare. In Scott's talented hands, the legendary Celtic queen Boudica breathes, lives, and absolutely rivets." -- Karen Marie Moning, author of The Dark Highlander "Manda Scott has created a book to stir the hearts and souls." -- Leslie Forbes, bestselling author of Fish, Blood and Bone "Boudica is a staggeringly imaginative invocation of Britain's secret history. Manda Scott has created a fictional universe all of her own, but close enough to our reality for it both to warm and break our hearts. Breathtakingly good, it reveals the best and worst in all of us." -- Val McDermid Praise for Manda Scott: "A new voice for a new world . . . and it's thrilling." -- Fay Weldon From the Trade Paperback edition., "What's amazing to me about this tale of Boudica, Britain's legendary female warrior, is the pitch-perfect fluency with which Manda Scott brings it forth . . . like an eyewitness recounting real events that she saw and participated in.
