I really enjoyed this book. At first, I was skeptical about the length of the book (1000 + pages), but I was captivated from page one. The characters were as true as life, believable, and interesting. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys historical fiction, and lengthy novels, but, if you are put off by the length of this book, don't be. The story goes fast, and stays interesting throughout the book.
