Books like Flame Over Tara

Macha drove me insane. There I've said it. Yet I'm still able to call this book 4 stars. Like most of what we do for Sonlight I start a lot of these books with a great deal of skepticism. I think, "This seems wordy and dull and way too detailed with the history to be any good."Then I get through the book and as I close it for the last time I sigh a little and think, "Now that was a good book."You'd think I'd learn to trust Sonlight more.Still, the story of St. Patrick is an interesting one, especially from this point of view. I think I liked Leary best in my own way, but then he's an interesting king - and much much smarter than most people give him credit for. Very good book!
