I am truly in the minority, but I did not like this book very much. Truthfully I thought it was a bit boring, and way too long. I felt you could easily cut out 300 pages or so and not miss much. Most of the characters I did not not care about. It was well written though. The language was lovely it flowed nicely. I like Anya Seton or Jean Plaidy better for historical fiction.
