I read other books by Eleanor Hibbert under her other pseudonym Victoria Holt. I understand that those books are a different genre but I found this book to be incredibly boring in comparison. It follows three women across the generations and is a historical fiction about the lives of the convicts who founded Australia. Unfortunately, there's not really anything driving the plot forward and it ends abruptly.

I know this author has many pen names but I have found that I love her books under the name Victoria Holt the best. This book disappointed me. It was still an ok book but I have read so many other books by her that I enjoy much more. I wonder if this was one of her early books. This was a long book following the lives of 3 different characters. Part of the book takes place in Australia which was an interesting setting. I liked the characters but the main problem was it was just too wordy at many times. Plus the ending left a little to be desired. I would also have loved to know what happened to the characters in England.
