I loved this book and look forward to the sequel, Dark Tides, which comes out at the end of November. I want to know what happens to the brave main characters Alinor and her daughter Alys in such dangerous times in the 1660s.

I had not read any of Philippa Gregory before, and I was not too enthusiastic when a friend lent it to me. However, I was pleasantly surprised. The main character is a mother of two children who is absolutely destitute and struggling to feed them all. It’s a story of what happens to them interspersed with interesting history in the time of Charles 1st. The author has obviously done a lot of research. There will be a sequel out in November and I will be one of the first to purchase! I recommend reading this book - you will not be disappointed!
