Summary: Egyptian goddesses in Eire
Review: Damona, servant of Bast, an Egyptian goddess whorshipped by some people in 5th-century Ireland, experiences a frightful tragedy that threatens to turn her from her Goddess. This book is the story of how Damona makes restitution for the evil she brings upon her land. It is also the rather moving story of how Christianity ocmes to dominate Europe and usurp the positions of the old religions, including Druidcraft and goddess worship. It is an exciting book, moving in places, and, while the writing is not exceptional, the historical background is interesting and seems accurate. I recommend it to people who are interested in early medieval Europe or in goddess worship. It is the a book in the Shield of Light series.

Summary: Shrine of Light, The Daughters of Bast
Review: I question myself on why I even finished this novel. From the very beginning, when they sacrificed a cat, I should have realized this is not the book for me, or for animal lovers. I do not like how they mixed and mingled Irish and Egyptian. It just seemed too weird. The main character, Damona, a young priestess, finds her family and home destroyed by Sekhmet, a goddess/lion who has no worshippers of Her own. Damona struggles to keep Bast's holy tradition alive... and struggles between good and evil. This book was not for me, clearly I did not enjoy it. *S*

Summary: The "Shrine of Light" was an exceptional book
Review: I really enjoyed the Shrine of Light, which is the latest book in the Daughters of Bast trilogy, and I can't wait for the next installment. I have always been a big fan of fantasy novels, and I was very impressed with how Sarah Isidore mixed the fantasy story in with Celtic historical events.
