Brigantia, a Romano-British goddess from the north of England, is betrayed by her brother Veteris and tricked into travelling through a one-way time portal to contemporary Britain. While on her quest to seek vengeance on Veteris, she befriends Pravin, a bookish historian who specialises in Celtic paganism. But how far will the sadistic Veteris go to preserve the dominion that he has spent centuries cultivating? Brigantia must adapt quickly to a time that has forgotten her and find a way to break Veteris' control over the people of Britain, so that she can return to her own time.
Celtic mythology contains some of my favorite legends, so, to see a story focusing on the old Celtic gods and goddesses has me excited. It isnt something I see very often, especially this well. Brigantia is an older goddess who does not have a lot written about her, and you can really tell that the creative team on used their Pagan Consultant, Limnaia Areia. The existing mythology felt honored in the story even when they threw the goddess into the modern world. Brigantia is a must read for anyone who loves mythology-based storytelling. Read Full Review
This is a story with gods, monsters and mythology which has the potential to become a really great saga. The next issue is coming up on Kickstarter soon, and Im looking forward to seeing where this story goes next. Read Full Review
