by Philippa Gregory
Full Review seen on my blog @ Dee's ReadsI am a fan of historical fiction, but it’s something that I feel I always forget about. I am also a big fan of paranormal and fantasy and they’re like the older and louder siblings in the genre family of my tastes. So while in the past I have read a few of P...
This book picked up a bit slower for me. Philippa Gregory spent perhaps a third of the book with Johann and there was plenty of religious talk in that space that didn’t particularly appeal to me. But once Johann’s prophesy comes true, things really pick up. The twist midway through the book brings t...

I was so excited to be able to get back into this world created by author, Philippa Gregory.

The use of " Insha Allah" is incorrect. Dear authors, if you want to use a word or phrase from a language not your own, do some resea...

Not as good as the first book but still thoroughly enjoyable. Review to come.
