In the Region of the Summer Stars is a new Celtic fantasy from Stephen R. Lawhead, the critically-acclaimed author of the Pendragon Cycle.
Ravaged by barbarian Sc lda forces, the last hope for Eirlandia lies with the island's warring tribes. Wrongly cast out of his tribe, Conor, the first-born son of the Celtic king, embarks on a dangerous mission to prove his innocence. What he discovers will change Eirlandia...
I just finished In the region of the summer stars, after recently being exposed to Mr.Lawhead’s writing, through finding In the region of the summer stars at my local library. I was transported into the world of Eirlandia, and I didn’t regret it at all. The fantasy in this book is strong, and enjoyable and really comes out, starting in the second half of the book, the characters are so Interesting and strong you care about them and feel like you know them personally, which is a great feeling. My only complaint, is I would of loved more world building focused on the land of EIrlandia, some chapters of the lore of the land would of been amazing, however, I have only read this book one, hopefully there will be more of that in the next book. 5/5
