I wish I could give this more stars. Absolutely loved this book, and could not be happier. If a book could ever feel like home this would be it for me. The writing is honest and brilliant, and it’s packed with information. I have so many notes and folded pages. Absolutely in love and wanting to buy every other book from the temple now 😂
Can’t thank the author or temple enough.

Interesting book. It focused heavily on goddess legend and myth, not as much on sacred sites but it is in there. There was great information on the goddess Rhiannon. I found I was skimming 80% of the book though. If you thought a college textbook was boring to read, this is far worse for an entertaining read. Still had decent information though

Lots of great pictures and drawings of archeological objects and sites, tracing roots of British goddesses, sometimes to their native surroundings and sometimes to surprisingly far off places. Very fun if you like Celtic or just Goddess studies

Covers everything you could want to known about the ancient goddess in relation to Glastonbury. I loved it and learned so much. I felt as if I was right there with her as she spoke about that land, scared sites and the myths and legends that surround Glastonbury and the Goddess
