The Book of Conquests is an excellent piece of workmanship.  The
translation of the original texts into English is good, and the artwork
is an incredible blend of authentic Celtic design elements and modern
pictorial style.

Being a specialist in Celtic calligraphy and illumination (references
available upon request), I wouldn't say that it's "close to the original
style," but it is an excellent modern interpretation.

I heartily recommend it, both for the visual treats and the poetry.
