Review
A very superficial and hastily written book without any source citations or references.
In the chapter on the threefold Brigid, only her three aspects (healing, poetry, and smithy) are discussed,
but not a word is said about Brigid as three sisters or as daughter, wife and mother.
In the chapter on the sacred fire, the 19 nuns are made priestesses and this is presented as a fact that 19 priestesses
kept the eternal fire burning. Only one historical text mentions the eternal flame being maintained by nuns
(The 12th century text "The History and Topography of Ireland" by Gerald of Wales, 67-69);
there are no ancient texts about an eternal flame from before that time, as this book would have us believe.
The book contains numerous errors and is superficially written. The author didn't spend much time on research,
which is difficult when you write more than 100 books in just a few years.
Reading the book, I strongly got the impression that it was written with an Artificial Intelligence.
Practically everything in this book is complete nonsense, as if an Artificial Intelligence had taken information from
various websites and changed and shuffled the texts to avoid copyright claims. The result is this book; a non-stop nonsense story.
