David McK (3938 KP) rated The River Warriors (The Savage Isle, #2) in Books
Oct 4, 2026
You might thinking the 'The River Warriors' of the title refers to a tribe of local Britons, resisting the Roman invasion.
You'd be mistaken - they are actually more the villains of the piece, with the story again following Cullen of the Atrebates, who is dispatched by Aoife the Druid to seek out and return a mysterious religious totem as the two armies prepare for battle on the river Vaga.
I didn't enjoy this one quite as much as the first, but reckon I still will continue on with the series anyways.
