    1.

    There are several instances where the book shifts to direct, first-person narration from Morgaine. Why do you think Zimmer Bradley chose to give readers this perspective in small bursts as opposed to using it throughout the book? How does the change in perspective impact the reader?

    2.

    Highlight some similarities and differences between how Christianity and Druidism treat women.
