The Druid King by Norman Spinrad

A vivid historical novel that follows the charismatic Gallic chieftain Vercingetorix as he rises to unite fractious tribes, draw on druidic tradition and guerrilla tactics, and mount a desperate struggle against the expanding Roman Republic under Julius Caesar; blending battlefield drama, tribal politics, and mythic atmosphere, the story examines leadership, cultural clash, and the personal costs of resistance as a doomed but heroic campaign unfolds.
