review 1: Gosh why all the awful reviews?!I got this as a free download and I found it to be incredibly fascinating.Darya is the daughter of a Duke, and finds herself welcomed into the Romanov family by a set of circumstances.She has an opal colored eye, which also seems to grant her powers.We follow her immersion into the Romanov family, and the circumstances that lead to the Romanov abdication of power, as well as their downfall and deaths (weaved in with a lot of fiction and guessing as to how that all happened).I like reading historical fiction, and this was definitely entertaining, though a little long winded by the end of the book.A lot of intrigue, a little history mixed with a lot of fiction. I really enjoyed it.
review 2: LOVED IT."This is more than art. This i... mores magic."—page 123I've had a longtime fascination with the 'idea' of the Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna, so a novel entitled, THE LAST ROMANOV (not about Anastasia, this time, but about her younger brother, the Tsarevich Alexei Nikolaevich Romanov), by Dora Levy Mossanen, seemed a good choice. It was. An excellent one.With fetching characters and compelling prose, Ms Mossanen weaves an engaging tale of historical fiction, legend, myth and fantasy in the mode of magical realism—not one of my favorite modes, but in this instance it is captivating. I'm still in love with, the forever seventeen-year-old, Anastasia, but now there's a fictional hundred-and-four-year-old, Darya Borisovna Spiridova competing for my affections.Recommendation: This is one I was sorry to see end. This would make a great book club read."In these unstable times, when people are either afraid to talk or have no qualms about convicting innocent citizens, everyone is suspect"—page 41NOOKbook edition, 319 pages less
