review 1: A truly wonderful novel, I have waited for this and it was worthwhile and I truly love these characters. This book made me cry and sigh and touched my heart in so many ways. The characters live on in the readers mind for so much longer and even weeks after finishing this novel th...

review 1: I enjoy historical fiction, so this novel set in France during WWII had much appeal. I had read little about the Maquis and trust that McIntosh's portrayal of these resistance fighters was fairly accurate. The author did a good job researching her subject and while her effort to ...

review 1: Having read several series of Macintosh's fantasy genre, I was intrigued to try a different genre. I was not disappointed. Her character delineation, description of setting was vivid and brought both to life. The identity change of the central protagonist - Tom/Alex is reminis...

review 1: The storytelling was well made but I didn't enjoy it as much as I could have because there was too much blood. I am not skirmish but honestly I felt like most of the action in the beginning of the book was done only for shock value. I mean one of the villains is a blood thirsty, ...

review 1: A strange book because I couldn't make up my mind for a long time if I liked it, I kept putting it down. Not a good sign for me as I like to finish a book once I have started. It really seemed like 2 authors had woven the story together, some parts were beautifully written, cha...

review 1: Sometimes I forget just how much I love Fiona McIntosh's writing and storytelling till I pick up one of her books. Because it's unpredictable. And I don't just mean it always ends with a twist, no no no, it's a constant series of twists that I, at times, have to put the book and...
