Don’t let the page count deter you from picking this up! It reads very quickly and is easy to follow. It is a fun, enthralling read! This is the peak of what historical fiction can be. The author clearly loves her subjects and her bibliography shows that she exhibited thoughtful and careful attention to detail. I will definitely be picking up the concluding sequel of this saga.
