Traitor to the Crown

review 1: This was my favorite of the series. It was interesting and had much less padding than the others. The historical events in this one were really good. As American's it deals a lot with the events that we don't hear about. It started out a little slow but the last part was much quicker paced. I even might have like a little more in the end. Warning: if you're new the Fantasy and 'magic' this one deals a lot with what is called 'blood magic' which may not sit well with some readers. I would have liked a little more in the end on Proctor reconciling the difference between his blood magic and that perform by the Covenant. Overall, I enjoyed this novel much more than the first two but I'm still bothered by how suddenly and conclusively Proctor cut his mother out of his life at t... morehe end of the first book. I would have also have liked to hear more about the other characters from the first and second novels that had left the farm. The history is wonderful but the rest of the story plot could have been fleshed out a little more.
review 2: The Traitor to the Crown trilogy closes out neatly with this volume. The historical aspect is cleverly done, especially the interaction of fictional and real-world characters. (I especially liked a cameo from William Blake.) The main character, Proctor Brown, is not a very likeable character through most of the book, but develops well and changes and has grown by the end. Some of the phrases and dialog struck me as a bit too modern-day and is occasionally jarring to the narrative flow, but overall the trilogy was most engaging and well worth the time. less
