This was an enthralling book about the religious conflicts during the 1550 to 1600s. I was hooked throughout and enjoyed all the different perspectives. It's a little complicated keeping track of all the characters, but it's definitely worth it. I really enjoyed all the historical references throughout the book. Also, it can be read as a stand-alone book, too.
