Customer Reviews of The White Raven
Couldn't put it down I absolutely loved this book. I really couldn't put it down. I felt like I WAS Branwen. I love mythology, but I didn't feel like I was reading a myth. A beautiful story!
Rivetign read
Diana Paxson writes so eloquently of Branwen's story against the backdrop of Tristan and Isault's. Her presentation of Branwen's sacrifices in the face of Isault and Tristan's somewhat selfish love affair made compelling reading! Far from being a soft love story, Paxson's tale gives a fascinating account of relationships, unrequited love and selfless/selfish ambitions. I have read this years ago and still do re-read it occasionally...and the magic is still there! Highly recommended.
Fairly Good
Anyone who believes this book to be about the romance of Trystan and Iseult has missed the point of this book entirely. The legend only provides the base for the events in the story. The real heroine in the book is Branwen who growns from maidenhood to adulthood with Iseult and learns to tap into the power of the Goddess. The book in itself is good, but not for its Arthurian content. Some scenes of pagan worship may disturb the quesy reader.
