BLUE FALCON

Rating:
Summary: A really good historical romance novel
Review: What struck me most about The Blue Falcon is that I expected a typical historical romance. Believe me, this is not your typical, funny historical romance. The plot is far more complex than others. Characters, such as Lady Chandra, Sir Conan, and Lady Udele, are well described and developed, both heroes and villains. Subplots are also very entertaining, such as the one between Lady Edythe and her lover. Other likable characters are Lady Edwina, Giselle, and Sir Medwin. The way medieval life (tournaments, balls, customs, etc.) is portrayed is excellent. The story also takes us through the pain,loss, and change of warfare (the Crusades). But most of all, what I most liked is how a stronger bond of love and feeling between the main characters (Chandra and Conan) is shown in this book than in any other historical romance I've read, and I've read a lot.
