Yet again another wonderfully detailed and creative book from this author! I have really enjoyed the series so far so was looking forward to the newest instalment and I wasn’t disappointed at all. Fingin’s story was really fun and interesting to read – I thought I knew what was going to happen but there were some nice twists in the story which kept me hooked from beginning to end. I loved the adventure and magic in the story I was easily lost in what I was reading. The authors writing never fails to transport me in to the world in which she is writing about – fantastic world and character building! Lovers of fantasy reads will not go wrong by reading this book and the series! I highly recommend this vividly detailed read to everybody!

Age of Secrets is the eighth book in the Druid’s Brooch Series by Christy Nicholas. It is a fantastic fantasy- with magic, adventure, paranormal elements, drama, action, romance, family, friendship, danger, battles, obstacles, and some mystery. I always love the attention to detail and vividly descriptive storytelling that Ms. Nicholas has proven to excel at- as it brings her stories to life and makes them very realistic, believable, and entirely captivating. I can always count on her to deliver a really well written tale. Each book in the series is fascinating in its own right, but then when you read a few, you begin to realise that each one contributes a fragment to a wonderful Tapestry. But, be prepared to have each book draw you in and get you invested in the story and characters, right from the beginning. Fingin hasn’t had things easy, and things get even more complicated when he is sent on a quest to find his grandmother. Along with his dog Bran, and Sean the donkey- they set off on an adventure which will test them in many ways. Things don’t go quite according to plan- and things are definitely not what they seem. If you love fantasy, lonely outcasts, magic, adventure, and wonderful animal friends- then you really shouldn’t miss this story! This adventure is a wonderful addition to the series.

I give Age of Secrets (The Druid’s Brooch Series 8) by Christy Nicholas, 5 stars.
If you have been reading the series, you have been following the path of the brooch and what powers the current owner of the brooch gains. The powers Fingin gains are my favorite so far and this book itself is my favorite in the series. I really like Fingin. He has had to endure so much in his life, but he doesn’t seem to have a moment’s peace. Just when he thinks he has settled down to a normal life, he is sent on a journey that is both treacherous and thrilling. He learns how much more there is to life and what he really wants out of it. The author has yet again woven a fantastic world set in Ireland, long before it was known as such. She does a perfect job of making you feel like you are there. The secondary characters just add more flavor into the mix. They are not necessarily your normal secondary characters, but you will love them all the same. And this book, it just wouldn’t fit in the series if there wasn’t some magic in it. Well, Fingin gets to experience more than he ever imagined. But he stays strong through everything. He has a big heart and cares about his friends, he must endure for them. But just how much can he take?
If you are a fan of a magical series with strong characters on a journey of a lifetime, this book and series is for you. It can be read as a standalone, but I suggest reading them all since they are so good.

Age of Secrets by Christy Nicholas is the eighth book in the Druid’s Brooch series. This book is as original and enticing as the other books in the series. Not many authors are skilled enough to carry a series though a few books, let alone 8 of them. And yet with each book this author produces the series just gets better. This book is everything I have come to expect – it is creative and detailed. The author has a writing style that makes it so easy to imagine the world she is envisioning. The characters have such a depth to them that it is almost like you are there with them, experiencing everything they do. I have to say this series is nothing at all like I expected when I picked up the first book. I was hesitant, sure that I wouldn’t like it and now I can’t wait to see what might be next. This is a great book and a fantastic addition to the Druids Brooch series.

Age of Secrets (The Druid’s Brooch Series Book 8) By Christy Nicholas 5 out of 5 stars
The story Age of Secrets (The Druid’s Brooch Series Book 8) by Christy Nicholas is a wonderful book that I loved reading. It pulled me in from the beginning and I found myself lost in the storyline and characters. I enjoyed reading about Fingin and his companions, Bran the dog, and Sean the donkey. Fingin has been sent on a journey by a powerful woman to find his grandmother. Fingin and his companions overcome many obstacles to find the correct path and at times there is danger. When Fingin finds his grandmother, he finds that things are not as they seem and that nothing is working out as it should have. What will happen when he gets mixed up in a power struggle and battle? What does the future hold for Fingin? Read this book to find out. This story is exciting to read and had my turning pages as I just had to know what happened next. I love the bond that Fingin and his companions have and how they look out for each other. Fingin is a likable character and I found myself wanting him to succeed and find happiness in life. Many other characters are introduced and some of them are helpful and then some are only out for themselves and what they want. I found this book to be entertaining and written in such a way that I felt like I right there with the characters. I would recommend reading this story.

I love this series. This is not my typical genre but ever since I have started this series, I have been completely invested. The details of the adventures, the way the story is told and how each character is described really makes me feel like I am inside the story with them. In this book we meet Fingin and his 2 companions Sean and Bran. They are on a journey to find Fingin’s grandmother who may or may not be real. The friendships that are forged, the adventures that are had, the obstacles they face, make for an awesome story that you will not want to stop. This book can be read as a stand alone but honestly starting from the beginning is the best and it is completely worth it.

Druid”s Brooch Series by Christy Nicholas is one of my favorite series. I recommend the entire series as the characters and storylines are engaging and adventurous. This book is no different. The character development makes you feel like you know them personally. In Age of Secrets Christy NIcholas has two unusual characters Bran, who happens to be a dog, and Sean who is a donkey. They are on the adventure with Fingin. This group goes through some twists and turns. Fingin is on an adventure to find his Grandmother. The problem is that his Grandmother may not exist in the world where he is looking for her. I will warn you that you may not put this book down once you start reading it.

This is the eighth book in this series, the best yet. I highly suggest reading this series from the beginning, they are full of action and adventure. This book is no different. This is a creative, well written story that took me on an adventure of finding someone who may not even exist. I enjoyed the characters, they made the story feel real. I enjoyed seeing the different characters such as Bran (dog) and Sean (donkey). Fingin finds Bran who leads him to a powerful woman who sends him on an adventure in search of his grandmother. I had a hard time putting this book down once the adventure started. Problem is – she may not even exist. I highly recommend this story to see what happens next.

Sometimes you search for what you don’t wish to find.
In 6th century Ireland, Fingin had no drive in his life until he found a half-drowned dog who became his best friend. That friend leads him to a cottage where a powerful woman sends him on a quest to find his grandmother. With his dog, Bran, and a donkey, Sean, they embark upon their journey. The problem is, his grandmother no longer seems to exist in this world.
Between falling in with a band of Fianna, nearly drowning in a river, and climbing to the rocky top of Skellig Michael, Fingin had just about had enough of this quest when some magical creatures sent him in the correct direction.
Once he finds his grandmother, he realizes nothing works out as it should have. She is far from what he remembers and even further from what he’d expected. And she entangled in a power struggle of her own and has little time to attend her wayward grandson.
Soon, a battle ensues, and Fingin is caught in the middle. He decisions will have long-term consequences for himself and those he loves.
Christy Nicholas, also known as Green Dragon, is an author, artist and accountant. After she failed to become an airline pilot, she quit her ceaseless pursuit of careers that begin with ‘A’, and decided to concentrate on her writing. Since she has Project Completion Compulsion, she is one of the few authors with NO unfinished novels.
Christy has her hands in many crafts, including digital art, beaded jewelry, writing, and photography. In real life, she’s a CPA, but having grown up with art all around her (her mother, grandmother and great-grandmother are/were all artists), it sort of infected her, as it were.
She wants to expose the incredible beauty in this world, hidden beneath the everyday grime of familiarity and habit, and share it with others. She uses characters out of time and places infused with magic and myth, writing magical realism stories in both historical fantasy and time travel flavors.
Combine this love of beauty with a bit of financial sense and you get an art business. She does local art and craft shows, as well as sending her art to various science fiction conventions throughout the country and abroad.

Legacy of Luck: Druid’s Brooch Series: #3 by Christy Nicholas
I loved this book just as much as the other books in this series. This book is so rich in detail that I felt like I was right there in it. There is magic, history, action, danger, romance and so much more. This story is Éamonn”s journey and it kept me completely enthralled. I really like Katie’s character as well and her strong personality. I couldn’t put this book down as soon as I started reading it until I got to the end. There are other wonderful characters in this story that make a great addition to this book. These books can be read as a standalone, but it is my suggestion to read them all because they are truly great stories. This author does an excellent job weaving magical stories in such a way that they grab your attention and keep you captivated. I highly recommend this book.

LEGACY OF LUCK Druid’s Brooch Series, #3 by Christy Nicholas is epic! I love series that contain stand alone novels! Each book can be independent and leave you satisfied but I couldn’t stop reading! I also love that you don’t need to read them in order if you choose to read the series. This book is full of magic, history and adventure. I’m hooked!

Legacy of Luck (The Druid’s Brooch Series Book 3) by Christy Nicholas was a pretty okay read that was intreating, engaging, with a solid plot.
A follower of this series, I have to say this wasn’t my fav, but still held my attention and kept me reading. I love the characters, and the MC’s were well developed, compelling, and easy to like. I like the opening, it set the stage for me and cemented the plot to come. The flow was steady, and the detail, wow, this book was heavy on the detail and really made you feel like you were apart of this world. I love the journey, the mystery, the little magic, and the high price that our MC had to pay when given the “gift”. This book was a rare take on what it deemed as romance. Sure they had little time together, but his will to dave her, find her, and doing what he could, was a treat for me.
I do wish there was more magic, and fea, but overall this book was a pretty solid read, and it gets my high recommendation and my stamp of approval.

Legacy of Luck by Christy Nicholas is the third book in the Druid’s Brooch series. This series can be read out of order and still enjoyed, but you will enjoy the common ties between the books. This story follows Eamonn and Katie. I really enjoyed their story and how the brooch played its part in the story. These are great historical fiction and the author puts time into exploring different periods of Irish history. I have read several books in this series and I have enjoyed each of them. The characters are interesting and each story focuses on different members in a family. This family story spans generation after generation. I look forward to reading more about them and the brooch in the future.

Legacy of Luck: Druid’s Brooch Series: #3 by Christy Nicholas My rating 5 out of 5 stars
This is probably the 5th book I have read by Christy Nicholas and like the previous books, this one is nothing short of awesome. Every time I read book from the Druid’s Brooch Series, I instantly get sucked in. This book is filled with romance, adventure, always magical and excellent characters.
I really enjoyed the character of Eamonn. He is the next in line to inherit the brooch and spends his time trying to save a fellow Traveler by the name of Katie from a loveless and unsafe marriage. The twists and turns along the way as well as the secondary characters we meet make this book truly wonderful. I especially love the way Katie’s parents were worked into the book as well as her evil fiancé/husband. Having such nasty characters really gives this book that extra edge, which again is what pulled me right in.
I truly recommend the entire Druid’s Brooch Series. Watching the brooch being passed down to different members of the family, and what obstacles they encounter because of it, is magical.

When I started the Druid’s Brooch series, I wasn’t sure to expect but now that I’ve finished book 3, it’s time I admit how much I’ve enjoyed it. Each story can be read as a standalone and the more I read from this Author, the harder it is to pick a favorite. Legacy of Luck had the imagery and authentic feel I’ve come to expect from the Druid’s Brooch series with a Fantasy element that proves to be fun and exciting. I really enjoy the depth and character development in this book. There were characters you love and those you love to hate, yet somehow find yourself invested in just the same. As always, looking forward to reading more from Christy Nicholas.

Legacy of Luck by Christy Nicholas was a very unique book. This book is a part of a series but can be read as a stand-alone. This book is about Eamonn and his travels to Scotland after he falls in love with Katie. Katie is a bartered bride against her will and he along with her sister go off to find her. Overall I really enjoyed the story. I love Scotland and Ireland stories so this was fun. I would rate 4 stars.

4 Stars
I am reading this whole series so far out of order it isn’t even funny. I have enjoyed almost all of the books I have read by this author and this series has been great considering I don’t even read this genre. I must say that besides the area descriptions and where this book takes place, it is not my favorite of the series, but I sincerely did enjoy it. I am thinking that this is not the authors fault, maybe if I go back and read all of these in order it will all be different for me. In saying that you can absolutely read these all as standalones without too much of a problem.
Eamonn’s journey to locate Katie, his true love along with her sister and his cousin was fun, had a bit of magic here and there and also had some twists and turns that I was not expecting. I’ve always wanted to visit Scotland so it was great taking this journey with them.
There were some great characters in this book, all of them written in very well and I definitely disliked the ones Im sure I was supposed to. There are some sensitive subjects in this book that were a bit hard to read at some points, but all in all this authors writing still comes through as completely awesome throughout.

Legacy of Luck is the third book in Christy Nicholas’ Druid’s Brooch Series. It’s a fascinating series that I’ve been really enjoying. Each book focuses on a character in a different point in (predominantly Irish) history who inherits a brooch, passed down through the generations, and with it gains some magical powers. I love the glimpses into history, and the way the story unfolds throughout time. In Legacy of Luck, the heir to the brooch is Éamonn. A traveller with a knack for gambling with dice, Éamonn is desperate to save fellow traveller Katie from an arranged marriage she hasn’t consented to. He has to discover how to use his powers to help him on his quest, and how to do so safely. There are lots of good characters in this story – I particularly like Éamonn’s brother Ruari as he is kind and loyal and uninterested in the romantic drama that takes over most of the other characters. I also like Turlough with his gift for music. In this book there is a fair bit of violence and domestic abuse, particularly in Katie’s story. It is addressed sensitively and is a relevant part of the story, but at times it is quite graphic and can come unexpectedly. For me, this is a five star book. I enjoy the series, and this is a great addition to it! The books do not need to be read in order, and indeed the series order doesn’t follow the chronological order of the time periods that the books are set. So I’ve been reading them in a fairly random order and enjoying the story that way! If you’re particularly interested in Irish travellers or 18th Century history, this might be a good place to start.

Legacy of Luck: Druid’s Brooch Series: #3 By Christy Nicholas Legacy of Luck is the third book in the Druid’s Brooch series by Christy Nicholas. This series are the only books I have read by this author and I have to say I have not been disappointed, Christy has a way of writing that really grabs you and makes you want to keep reading just to see what is happening. The thing I like about Legacy of luck is the story doesn’t start with a bang, it slowly builds up and in my opinion gives a chance of getting to the characters much better. It’s good to read another book with a female character as a main, but also making her a strong character enhanced the story. In this book we have romance and action a plenty. This book can also be read as a stand alone with ease. I highly recommend that this series is read, like me you will enjoy it I am sure.

Legacy of Luck Druid’s Brooch Series #3 by Christy Nicholas is a historical fantasy that is full of magic and mystical creatures. The story is fraught with action and drama, adventure and mystery, and lets not forget the danger. All books in this series can be read as standalones. Having been to Ireland and Scotland I found it easy to travel to and imagine the vivid pictures that Christy was painting. I enjoyed this story but to me it was a little slower paced to begin with and took awhile for me to warm up to it. I felt the storyline of the Brooch was missing in this tale and I was a little unsure of some of the characters. There is a little twist towards the end that I did not see.
Travellers Eamonn and Kate are attending a horse fair with their families and Eamonn falls head over heels for Kate but she is forced into an arranged marriage. Thus becomes the journey to save her and have her for himself.
I have read most of the books in this series and am not sure what is left to read but I look forward to finding out.

“The Druid’s Brooch Series” is a a series of books that can be read as standalone stories. The common thread is a brooch that is passed on to family over the course of many generations.
LEGACY OF LUCK is not my favorite of the series. The descriptive writing had me fondly recalling my recent trip to Ireland, but I never connected with the characters.
This is on me, not the author. The story evolves slowly and there is a bit of repetition with events (or dice games) and circumstances. It is a fairly fast read and I will be putting this on my “to be read again list” to see if my opinion changes.

This is the third book of the series but is a standalone. I have enjoyed everyone of these novels they all are written beautifully. While I was reading this novel I felt like I was right there alongside the character’s and I could also visualise everything around them was an amazing experience. These novels aren’t usually my go to but I fully admit I enjoyed every second and cant wait to read more.

Legacy of Luck is the third book in the Druid’s Brooch series. It can be read as a standalone. Having read previous books in this series I can say that this one is just as awesome. The author has a great eye for detail and weaves the story in a way that makes you feel like you are right there with the characters. There are fantasy elements blended with realistic ones and it makes for a believable tale. Despite a few slow places in the story, the overall adventure, drama, and plot twists keep you hooked.

Legacy of Luck (Druids Brooch Series #3) by Christy Nicholas 4 Stars!!!!
This is yet another book in this series I have read and I was not disappointed. I really enjoyed yet another trip into the world of the Fae and ancient Ireland and Scotland this time. The author has quite a unique world that she has created. I was just as enthralled with this book as I have been with the others in this series I have read.
The characters are refreshing and bring the story to life. I really like how the author entwines the two worlds together of the enchanting Fae and the magic and the real world , I really enjoyed the cultural pasts that the author uses in this book of Ireland and Scotland. I like how the story wasn’t predictable. Eamonn and Katie’s characters really drew me more into the book. I like how each were each other’s second chance. I really routed for Eamonn at the beginning as Katie was really off limits to begin with. I also like how Eamonn’s family history with the brooch and the Fae gets entwined into the story. I will definitely be reading more from this author in the future.

Legacy of Luck by Christy Nicholas is the third book in the Druids Brooch series. This is a great series that is full of detail and amazing characters. Although all the books interlink you can read them as stand-alones. Yet again this author has created a story so vivid and captivating that you will find yourself drawn into the characters and their lives. It’s is so easy to imagine yourself right there with them all. The combination of reality and folklore is written so well that you could easily believe it all. This really is a great series and one that everyone should try.

Legacy of Luck is the third book in the Druid’s Brooch Series by Christy Nicholas. It is a historical fantasy- with mystical elements, magic, Fae, action, adventure, drama, mystery, and danger. Eamonn is a horse trader and Traveller (not to be confused with Gypsies),who is attending a horse fair with his family. Kate and her sister Deirdre are also Travellers who are at the fair with their parents (who are really horrible people). Eamonn falls for Kate, but before he can really do anything about it, Kate’s father arranges a marriage for her, and she is whisked away. Eamonn is determined to rescue her, and so with Deidre and his cousin- they set off on their quest. I have read quite a few of the books in this series now, but not in sequence- picking books at random- and thankfully each book can be read as a standalone. I have found this story the most difficult to ‘get into’, as it was really slow to get going and the overall pace of the story was much slower than I would have liked. I also couldn’t connect with Eamonn, and I found him hard to like. I didn’t mind Kate- but again I didn’t fully connect with her either. I really wanted to like this story much more than I did, because all the other books I have read of Ms. Nicholas’s there hasn’t been a problem getting into the story or connecting with the characters. Perhaps I’m just having an off week- so I will look at revisiting this book in the future to see if I still feel the same way. I will be continuing my exploration of this series to see what else Ms. Nicholas has in store for us!

Legacy of Luck is the third book The Druid’s Brooch Series from Christy Nicholas. I do believe you could read these out of order or as stand alone novels however, I wouldn’t recommend it. Christy Nicholas puts a lot of work and time into her scene and story building. It is evident that the amount of research and effort put into the details and making them as accurate as possible. The world of Ireland and the Travelers of the time is vividly painted for you so that you feel as if you are right there where the story is taking place and soaking it all in. I couldn’t and still can’t get enough of the world building that Nicholas does.
I’m not going to even attempt to tackle the story-line and details around that much outside of what the author already chose to divulge in the blurb. I will say these characters were some fun ones to read. The initial first few chapters were slow but once this story took off it was full speed ahead until the final page. My only complaint could be that I wished there was more detailing and explaining of The Druid’s Brooch. I feel like that story-line got lost a little in this book. I am looking forward to seeing what will come next in the series.
