Rating: Summary: Excellent Series Opener Review: At first glance of the cover, I was a bit turned off. But as the old adage goes. "One should not judge a book by it's cover".I'm glad I didn't let the cover sway me. In my opinion the cover tends to yell "romance". This, however, is not the whole picture. Sure there is romance in the book, as well as the series as a whole, but the action and historical events covered make this an enjoyable series for everyone (even us guys). If you like historical fiction with substance this is a treat.

Rating: Summary: I thank my dad for getting me started on this amazing series Review: My father gave me this book to read after he finished it, and it BLEW ME AWAY! I have since finsished the second, and look forward to polishing off the rest of the series! Mr. Morris is truly an amazing writer. My definition of an excellent book is one that not only tells a story, but puts you there. You feel as if you can see everything in detail, even the things not described, because the author puts so much feel into it. Well this book series does it for me. NO ONE would ever regret buying this book, the others in this series.

Rating: Summary: An interesting historical read Review: This is a interesting series about the Wakefield family. I would have enjoyed more depth to the Wakefields as well as more romance. There is ALOT of historical information and detail. If you can skim past some of it, it is a good read. If you are a romance reader though, you may want to skip this series.
Rating: Summary: An interesting historical read Review: This is a wonderful beginning to a great series! Gilbert Morris truly ties together true history with the fictional families beautifully. A good read for teens on up.
