5.0 out of 5 starsMy New Favorite Book Series Ever! Warning...Highly Addictive!
Reviewed in the United States on March 2, 2021
I casually came across this book while browsing the Goodreads site. I was trying to find a new-to-me story that I could fall in love with, that I could get lost in, that I could dive into and never want to return...let me just tell you, I hit the mark with this one.

It has everything that I love and want in a read...adventure, history, intrigue, friendship, loyalty, love, loss, heartache, heartbreak, pain, beauty, joy, happiness and more all encompassed in an amazing, page-turning storyline that I could hardly put down. Seriously, I had to force myself to sleep and every spare minute of my day was spent reading this beauty of a book. I COULD NOT GET ENOUGH OF THIS BOOK!

I'm currently reading, 'Sidroc the Dane' which is a stand alone book (you can read it at any point in the series) in this sweeping saga that tells you his (Sidroc's, who is a main character) back story and helps fill you in on what made/makes Sidroc, Sidroc! While it isn't a required read to know what's going on within the series, it's simply a must read, in my opinion, to get every wonderful tidbit of info and insight into and from this intriguing and engrossing character. I'm loving every minute of it!

I've also already read books two, 'Ceridwen of Kilton' and book three, 'The Claiming' and oh dear, it just keeps getting better and better! After I finish Sidroc the Dane, I will be diving voraciously into book 4 and you guessed it, books 5, 6, and 7, too! I read that she (Ms. Randolph) is currently and at the time of this writing, working on book 8 and I'm absolutely delighted for this news!

This is one series that I'll re-read for the rest of my days, that's just how much I love it. I've been an avid reader my entire life and have read thousands of books, this saga is, by far, my most beloved favorite without a doubt.

My heartfelt gratitude goes out to Ms. Randolph for writing such a sensational and amazing story that has captured and captivated my heart. Leof Ms. Randolph and wes thu hal :)

3.0 out of 5 starsLost Interest
Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2021
I am fascinated with this period in history snd believe it hold important lessons for our own time. While this story started out well it completely fell apart about half way through the book. There was no point or direction to the entire second half and as a result I couldn’t wait until it ended. If you like historical fiction the volume is VERY short on history and VERY long on useless verbiage. Not a series I will continue reading. NOT recommended.

Reminded me of the writing style used in books targeting Young Adult readers. Was slow in character development and though it had a few interesting chapters it was mostly flat. Good read before bedtime to put you to sleep.

Boring. I generally don't have trouble with long intros, but I didn't like the writing style and it dragged on.

1.0 out of 5 stars I was very disappointed in this book
Reviewed in the United States on May 12, 2016

I was very disappointed in this book. The characters are not well developed, their actions and reactions to their circumstances are not believable. There is a wealth of possibilities for a story line during this period that was totally missed - I have never read a book where the main characters cried over everything! It is written In a narrative form so the dialogue and interaction between the characters was one-sided. The story line is also a. It far fetched.

1.0 out of 5 stars disapointed
Reviewed in the United States on August 15, 2013

I was left feeling hollow and disappointed. The heroine is brave and courageous in leading a blind Knight back to his home, but when it came time to rise to the defense of her "best friend" who she "loved like a sister" she was a whimp, apparently caring more about what her "new family" thought about her, than the devastation her dear friend would suffer. Brings alive the saying "with friends like that who needs enemies" won't bother reading the rest of the trilogy.

Liked the historical and cultural background. Lots action and multiple story lines. Impressed with the main character development. I recommend the book to those who like historical romances.
