Description
Too Long a Sacrifice by Mildred Downey Broxon (1981, First Edition HC) | Celtic. It is increasingly difficult to find in hardcover, especially with its original dust jacket intact. Offered here is the first edition hardcover of Too Long a Sacrifice by Mildred Downey Broxon, published in 1981 by Dell. A standalone fantasy novel rooted in Celtic mythology, it follows the bard Tadhg mac Arnaill as he becomes entangled in otherworldly conflict and time travel through ancient Ireland and modern turmoil. Notable for its richly drawn mythological themes and literary style, Broxon’s novel is well-regarded among fans of early 1980s feminist fantasy and Celtic-rooted speculative fiction. The vibrant and unusual jacket art by Katrina Taylor makes this a distinctive addition to vintage fantasy collections. This is the scarce first edition, confirmed by copyright and title page details. It is increasingly difficult to find in hardcover, especially with its original dust jacket intact. Condition Good. Dust jacket is present but worn with multiple tears, creases, and corner loss, especially along the spine and upper front edge. Boards show minor wear and shelf rubbing. Pages are clean with uniform toning; no markings or writing. Binding solid, no loose pages. Despite cosmetic flaws, this remains a complete and collectible example of a hard-to-find title.
