Julia E. (julie575) - reviewed on 10/30/2013 + 20 more book reviews

As usual, Liss crafts an intricate plot of intrigue and commerce. I always learn a lot from his books, this time about the textile industry in early 18th century England, the intertwining of commerce & politics, and the British East India Company. There were times I got a little confused yet all loose ends are tied up nicely in the end. I was stunned by the ruthlessness of powerful (and powerless) people, and found myself even more invested in Weaver's ultimate triumph.
