review 1: it is a beautiful story in a difficult era with mostt of the characters having lots of flaws and shortcomings. But they were able to triumph over the hurdles that were set down in each of their paths toward happiness. thoses struggles make the book a real page turner.the Salem witch trials were an insane period with no reasoning in their logic and execution of judgement. this book touches upon that terrible time and i will be reading The Heretics Daughter next which will delve into the witch trials even more. I inadvertantly read this book before reading "The Heretics Daughter" and fell in love with the main characters. why did she write these first two books in reverse chronological order? it actually makes much more sense reading The Wolves .... f... moreirst.
review 2: I got this to read, thinking I was reading a different story of a 'traitor's wife' (Benedict Arnold. This one is set in Colonial America, but it is the time of the Puritans. The author, Kent, is telling the Story of her (9) greats back, great grandparents. Her great (9)great grandfather might have been the man who chopped off the head of Charles I of England during the time of the English Civil War. He has taken refuge in the Puritan colonies and meets Martha, a young woman with a mouth and a mind of her own; which makes her not a good candidate for marriage. Her story finishes in another book called The Heretic's Daughter. Thomas and Martha are an interesting pair. I never realized that Charles II was so determined to track down the people he believed responsible for his father's beheading. The story goes back and forth between England and the colonies; lots of spies, wolves, magic, and romance for all. less
