A gripping prologue sets the scene for this thoroughly researched tale of medieval intrigue.
A fascinating and vividly depicted tale with an entirely apt title.
A fantastic read, where the descriptions bring it to life and draw you into the story. Difficult to put down!
An excellent read, very gripping.
An excellent evocation of the era, with convincing characters 'of the time' so that unlike many historical books, they didn't behave like modern people in funny clothes.
A brilliant plot, well drawn characters, and a convincing backdrop.
