I only picked up this one (missed the Christmas sale, darn it!) so I'm holding off as I'm pretty sure I'll want to devour the series once I start. Your review was wonderful...and makes me want to throw caution to the wind. Glad you enjoyed!
I think I'm going to have to hunt some of these out. Dr Lucy Worsley (a well known historian in the UK - she is made of fabulous; really engaging and enthusiastic about everything she does) thinks they're great and I feel inclined to obey her in all matters.
