Title: Poor history
Product review: Although the story of Charis and Taliesin is an interesting one, and reasonably well written, I could not finish the book. Lawhead places Atlantis at the same time the Romans are occupying Britain. Plato (b. c. 427 b.c.e.) spoke of Atlantis being an ancient city and other authors have placed Atlantis about the same time as the Minoans (c. 1500 b.c.e.). The Roman occupation of Britain started with Julius Caesar (55-54 b.c.e). These two are not contemporaneous. I much prefer my historical fiction to be reasonably historical.
