review 1: Kent's prequel to The Heretic's Daughter takes the reader back to 23-year old Martha Carrier's life as an outspoken spinster in 17th century Massachusetts. A novel of love, survival, and revenge, Kent seamlessly weaves the love story of Martha and Thomas, the political intrigue following the beheading of King Charles I, and the struggle against the untamed wilderness and disease in colonial America.
review 2: I loved The Heretic's Daughter, but The Wolves of Andover not so much. I think it was the combination of flip-flopping between narratives and how "mysterious" the characters seemed; if a character is so mysterious I never really get to know him (or her), then I will not become invested in the novel. I actually gave up about three-fourths of the way in, w... morehich is unlike me, especially if I paid for a book (and I did this one). less
