review 1: Very disappointing read for me. Too much like a novelette and not in the same class as other historical novels I have read. Considering the historical implications of Henry V's rampage through France and his marriage to a French princess, this book should have been fascinating but it lacks any depth and is quite boringly written.

Of course there was drama, but there was also some fantastically intense scenes that just kept the book moving along and along. less
