A review by carolyn0613
Fools and Mortals by Bernard Cornwell

5.0

I really loved this book. It was very well written, it felt very authentic, and it was a great story. Set in Elizabethan London, the story is of Shakespeare’s brother, the birth of the theatre and the plays written for these new venues. I haven’t read a book by Bernard Cromwell before as I didn’t think I would like them. This was said to be a departure from his normal style but I am now planning to read more of his work. The writing was excellent.
