Reading Boudica
I have just finished reading this four volume saga, feeling a little bereft as I usually do after finishing a good read. It was involving, moving and especially fascinating in the way it presented as normal the frequent insights into the life after this, the activities and communications from the 'lands beyond life'. I did feel that the overwhelming concern from the hereafter was about killing enemies and fighting generally, but I guess that is what those times were about - fight or fall. It clashed a little with my experience of the Christian God, who came prepared to spill his own blood rather than that of others. The tale was very believable, and based on what evidence there is, which is pretty sparse.
