I've actually read only The Song of Albion thrilogy, but I found it quite inspiring. I love the way Lawhead used his characters to represent the concept of Christianity in general. I especially like the parallels of characters like Llew to Jesus, Meldrin Mawr to King David, Goewin To the Church, etc. I can't wait to read his other works.

What ? no listing for his other books? Don't forget Empyrion, Dreamthief, the Dragon King. I'll admit that after Taliesin, Merlin and Arthur, I found Pendragon (book 4) a bit dark and depressing. The song of Albion Series is far and away my favourite by this author. Unlike BB, I didn't find any parallels between Druidic Albion and Christianity but I loved the way the whole concept of this "Other " Albion of story and spirit was evoked, working in all of the better known figures of Celtic mythology.
