I'm looking to buy this book, but can't find any scholarly reviews. Are there things I need to be aware of before reading this book? What are it's shortcomings/strengths?
You're probably not going to find recent scholarly reviews because the book is from 1997. It's a little bit dated. However, Barry Cunliffe is a hugely respected and important archaeologist who is a world-leading expert on European archaeology and the Celts. I'm not familiar with any monographs or books that discuss the topic in the same way.
Keep in mind a couple of things:
Overall, it's a very good book, but don't expect a light history book in the vein of Tom Holland - it's a serious scholarly work that happens to be a well-known book about a subject not usually touched on my popular historians.
