I never had to suspend my belief to relate to these characters, which is the highest praise I can give an author. Fantastic story!! This one kept my heart rate up! Every time I thought I could relax, there was another fast paced plot twist I absolutely adore the magnificently happy ending!! I'm not sure how she does it, but Tracy continues to make each story more exciting than the last! I can't stop reading these, even when I should be sleeping! I was fascinated by the way the author wove in so many names and places and events from both the legends and historians’ best speculations on actual happenings. Yet the story also flows along with great characters and a compelling plot. It’s one of those wonderful novels that make you feel you are really there in a foreign time and place, and you feel a little smarter when you finish. Detailed, stunning, and completing engrossing. A telling of this tale that puts you directly in the action and engaged in the struggle yourself. Absolutely brilliant!! I have loved this series from the beginning and don't understand how she keeps topping the one before. But, she did it again. Tracy writes in such a way as to make you feel like YOU are living in this time In history. This story left me breathless and speechless. It is so much more than the book blurb promises! I feel like I have actually met the characters and the scenes are set so completely that I feel that I am actually present during the action. Very few authors can write so you get completely caught up in the story but Tracy Cooper-Posey is definitely at the top of that list. Incredibly engaging story that will leave you on the edge of your seat, and flipping the pages. This is well developed and beautifully written. This Book Rocks! It is difficult to find the words that will do justice to this novel. Absolutely brilliant! Tracy Cooper Posey is a totally engaging storyteller who grabs hold of you and delivers you into the story from the first word.
