review 1: I love Barbara Erskine's books, especially the early ones. River of Destiny is her latest. I would have given it five stars for plot and creepy "otherworldly" stuff, for which she's wellknown. However, I can't say I cared for any of the characters that much, so it was not an emotional read. But that's neither here nor there. They say you capture a reader's attention through emotions; she does it with a slowly building suspense.
review 2: I found it difficult to buy into the story. The characters in every era were too far fetched. I can't add too much more without revealing plot details which would completely ruin any future reader's enjoyment as finding out what happens next is the only enjoyment this book brings, certainly for me anyway. By the end I began not... more to care whether the 'ancient evil' was resolved or not and felt increasingly irritated at the author's dumbing down of religion to a godless karma based hodge podge. However, that said, I can see some readers finding this story completely enthralling, alas, I was not one of them. less
