The author clearly likes poeticizing language, which is fitting for a tale set in ancient Eire.
The book is relatively feminist, with the ambitions and grit of our heroine, Keelin, the chieftan's daughter, wanting more out of life.
This feels a bit like one of those movies or television series where we see characters in ancient Rome sitting about feasting and discoursing, but here it takes place in ancient Ireland.
I think I'd basically classify this as a romance, a romance which takes place in a time of war or military endeavor.
I like the line, "Britannia's highland rebels are only annoyances, much like fleas on a dog."
The dialogue in this would definitely suit a 1950s Hollywood costume epic.
