Rating: Summary: It was Ok. Review: This was a ok book.Could have been alot better. It felt like it was missing something.
Rating: Summary: Declining standards Review: What a tedious pair! Neither the hero nor the heroine is at all interesting, and their decisions drag on and on and on. The tangential stories are no better, with little or no character development. Small must be writing to deadline, because her secondary characters are all repetitions of earlier characters.Lately, it seems as if each of Bertrice Small's books has been worse than its predecessor. She hasn't had an interesting heroine since the books focusing on Jasmine (and the last of those was pretty weak). Maybe it's time to let the O'Malley descendents rest in peace.
Rating: Summary: It was a very dig DISAPOINTMENT Review: While not one of Ms. Small's best works (The Kadin, Love Slave)it at least shows some imagination and does not immediately throw our heroine into a harem.. There were two sub plots that slowed the story down...the kidnapping of Aine...and the servant girl in Mary's Land...but, Ms. Small did not dwell on this... Overall a pleasant diversion for a day....
