Story
The Scythians were nomadic horsemen who ranged wide across the grasslands of the Asian steppe from the Altai mountains in the east to the Great Hungarian Plain in the first millennium BC. Their steppe homeland bordered on a number of sedentary states to the south and there were, inevitably, numerous interactions between the nomads and their neighbours. The Scythians fought the Persians on a number of occasions, in one battle killing their king and on another occasion driving the invading army of Darius the Great from the steppe.

Story
For 2,500 years, the Celts have continued to fascinate those who have come into contact with them, yet their origins have remained a mystery and even today are the subject of heated debate among historians and archaeologists. Barry Cunliffe's classic study of the ancient Celtic world was first published in 1997. Since then, huge advances have taken place in our knowledge: new finds, new ways of using DNA records to understand Celtic origins, new ideas about the proto-urban nature of early chieftains' strongholds. All these developments are part of this fully updated edition.

Starting AD 400 (around the time of their invasion of England) and running through to the 1100s (the 'Aftermath'), historian Geoffrey Hindley shows the Anglo-Saxons as formative in the history not only of England but also of Europe. The society inspired by the warrior world of the Old English poem Beowulf saw England become the world's first nation state and Europe's first country to conduct affairs in its own language, and Bede and Boniface of Wessex establish the dating convention we still use today.

Story
Sixteen hundred years ago Britain left the Roman Empire and swiftly fell into ruin. Grand cities and luxurious villas were deserted and left to crumble, and civil society collapsed into chaos. Into this violent and unstable world came foreign invaders from across the sea, and established themselves as its new masters. The Anglo-Saxons traces the turbulent history of these people across the next six centuries. It explains how their earliest rulers fought relentlessly against each other for glory and supremacy, and then were almost destroyed by the onslaught of the vikings.

One of the leading authorities on British archaeology, Barry Cunliffe, takes the listener on a fast-paced look at the ever-fascinating story of the Druids, as seen in the context of the times and places in which they practiced. Sifting through the evidence, Cunliffe offers an expert's best guess as to what can be said and what can't be said about the Druids, discussing the origins of the Druids and the evidence for their beliefs and practices, why the nature of the druid caste changed quite dramatically over time, and how successive generations have seen them in very different ways.

The Viking Age - from 750 to 1050 saw an unprecedented expansion of the Scandinavian peoples into the wider world. As traders and raiders, explorers and colonists, they ranged from eastern North America to the Asian steppe. But for centuries, the Vikings have been seen through the eyes of others, distorted to suit the tastes of medieval clerics and Elizabethan playwrights, Victorian imperialists, Nazis, and more. None of these appropriations capture the real Vikings, or the richness and sophistication of their culture.

Story
Most people have heard of the Celts - the elusive, ancient tribal people who resided in present-day England, Ireland, Scotland and France. Paradoxically characterized as both barbaric and innocent, the Celts appeal to the modern world as a symbol of a bygone era, a world destroyed by the ambition of empire and the spread of Christianity throughout Western Europe. Despite the pervasive cultural and literary influence of the Celts, shockingly little is known of their way of life and beliefs, because very few records of their stories exist.

A bit dry, but overall interesting
The narrator was a bit dull, very factual little emotion. But the story more then made up for it. As a person who knows very little about celts, I found it very informative and it made me question some other aspects of history I took as fact. There is a lot about the history between Rome and the celts and I found that the most interesting. There was also a good bit about the women in Celtic history as well which I found fascinating. Defiantly worth a listen, if you ask me.

Worth you time
Engagingly written and well organized. I enjoyed the book, though the author is obviously a booster for Celtic culture and makes a lot of tendentious assertions that a more balanced writer would have qualified. Still worth your time if you’re looking for an overview of ancient Celtic culture and history - just double check the facts with other sources before you start spouting off the glories of the Celts to your friends. The reader is great - he has that perfect tone of authority and pomposity to go with the text’s recurring self-important dismissal of all contrary opinions. Or maybe it’s just the British accent. Go in with the understanding that the book has a bias and you’ll find much to enjoy.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
I didn't have an extreme reaction but it did make me sad and angry that a barbaric Roman race could defeat such and intellectual and amazing people.

Great way to start learning about the Celts
Start with this audiobook if you want to learn about the Celts. I've listened to Barry Cunliffe's The Ancient Celts, and a good chunk of Kenneth Harl's Rome and the Barbarians. Both have their pluses and minuses, but this book is definitely the most interesting and I feel like I get a much better overview of the topic.
If you want to further your knowledge, then listen to the other two titles I mentioned. Cunliffe gives more detail on the ancient Celts, whereas this book has one chapter on the subject at the end. However, you will feel like you're having random facts thrown at you and it is more disorganised in how the subjects are grouped. Harl gives more information about the effect Celts had on Rome, but there is also a lot of Roman history that you could maybe skip (and you will get shouted at by the author).
However, both these authors put great stock in Roman descriptions of who the Celts were, even though these sources clearly had some bias. The author of this book has much more skepticism towards these sources which is refreshing. He also provides a lot more information about the Celts on the periphery of the ancient world, like Britain and Ireland, and uses the surviving Irish literary texts passed down through the centuries to help interpret who the Celts might have been.
All in all, I think each had its own merit, but start with this one.

The Greatest at everything everywhere.
Mr. Peter Berresford Ellis is most certainly one the greatest Celtic apologists. The Celts are the be all end all of civilization in Mr. Ellis' mind I do believe. Interesting information but very favorable in all things Celtic. I admire the Celts as much as anyone, and my DNA has roots in Britain and Western Europe, but Mr. Ellis certainly has his Celtic bias.

A full account of today's knowledge of the Celts
I've always been very interested in the history of the Celts, but after listening the this book, I have to recognize that I knew almost nothing.
In the 'brief' history, the state of the art about knowledge of the Celts is revealed in a clear, complete but (dare I say it?) concise manner.
When I listened to the author's prologue, I had the impression of hearing a rant, but after listening to the rest of the book, I can quite understand the need for it.
Excellent book!

Forgotten/suppressed?
Modern scholarship (archeology, closer analysis of texts and artefacts, etc) has revealed that there was far more to know about the once widespread Celtic civilisation than Julius Caesar (The Gallic Wars) and Romans in general wanted you to know (Rome was humiliated early on by Italian Celts, so don't expect objectivity!)
When I was at school, in Scotland, in the dying years of the British Empire, you had to study Latin to go to uni, which I didn't mind at all, because it's logical and concise and rewarding (you know when you've got it right!) We also knew that the Romans invaded "Scotland" a wee bit, but thanks, probably, as much to the midges as the ferocious natives, they didn't stay long. We also, surprisingly, learnt Irish history from the viewpoint of the indigenous Catholic population-("my enemy's enemy is my friend"?) and we knew fine well our Christian heritage was Irish not Roman, but Anglo-Saxons, like the Romans before them, controlled the propaganda and still do.
Forget all the Brigadoon and "The Quiet Man", even - though I still enjoy it - Whisky Galore- Celts were/are everywhere, sometimes hidden.
