I absolutely LOVED this book. I loved it! For anyone on the Wiccan path, or anyone who likes Roman history, this is a MUST READ!!!!I hesitate to give it up, because I liked it so much,but it is one of those that it would be a crime to keep to myself, and should be shared with whomever else would like to claim it.

This is the story of Helena, the mother of Emperor Constantine. A good book.

still rading this book but am enjoying it - not as much as Mists but still riveting.
I really enjoyed the way the story unfolded-great read!
I enjoyed this book.
Bradley is a lot less interesting after abandoning paganism for christendom.
