Having been a history major in college, this book was perfect for me. It is a wonderful mix of historical events, great characters, and a moving story. I really did like this book and if you enjoy a little bit of magic mixed in with real history, you may like this one too.The book opens in 1628 an...
This book kept me captivated. I enjoyed the mystery of who Gideon was going to transform into. I thought that the ending was brilliant. The book couldn't have ended any other way. Can't hear Greensleeves without getting a chill.

Instead of being just born into the skill, its more of a learned skill and gift from another.My favorite portions were those from Bess's past. Those flowed ...
I enjoyed reading about Elizabeth's long life at its various points and the ending was pretty exciting, but I did get a little mad at the way it seemed she forgot that her enemy was out there (I can't be much more clear without including spoilers). After the first run in, I was able to tell who the ...
