Summary: In Search of Sequels
Review: I really enjoyed this book, and to tell the truth I'm surprised I did. Usually I select a book that has a girl as the main character, or at least a little romance to make it more interesting. Since this book had neither, I only read it because it was supposed to be good and we already owned it. I hardly cared about the French Revolution. But once I had started "In Search of Honor", I could hardly put it down!

This book is the story of Jacques Chenier, a fictional character whose life is torn apart one day when his father is murdered. His desire for revenge gets him in deep trouble, and what follows is a gripping story of hate and its consequences, as Jacques learns the true meaning of honor. Even if you aren't interested in the French Revolution, I would recommend this book.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Inspiring tale of the French Revolution
Review: My eighth grade students and I read this book together in school. We all enjoyed the story because it coincided with our study of the French Revolution.

The tale follows the trials and tribulations of young Jacques as he grows up during this uncertain time. There are many historical references and it made my students feel like they really knew what life was like during that time.

The story also contains an inspirational message and meaningful "moral". An excellent historical fiction novel!!
