DREAMING THE EAGLE

The first volume in the bestselling BOUDICA series

'A powerful novel, alive with the love, deceit, wisdom and the heroics of humanity.' Jean Auel

'What's amazing to me about this tale of Boudica is the pitch-perfect fluency with which Manda Scott brings it forth. It's as if she were an eyewitness recounting real events that she really saw and really participated in. All of it is utterly convincing and compelling ...A stunning feat of the imagination and an absolute must-read for lovers of historical fiction.' Steven Pressfield

'BOUDICA is a staggeringly imaginative invocation of Britain's secret history . . . Breathtakingly good, it reveals the best and worst in all of us.' Val McDermid

'An extraordinary work combining history and imagination. It's exciting and intriguing, taking you into a world where unbelievable danger and cruelty sit side by side with magic, spirituality and profound human relationships. At times I was moved to tears, at others, immensely proud to be bred from a tradition that made warriors of women.' Jenni Murray, (Woman's Hour)

'It looks as if we have a new trilogy to rival The Lord of the Rings in its appeal. Actually, I think it will be better. Scott doesn't mess about with the elves. And her druids are really scary.' Jane Jakeman, Scotland on Sunday
