The Book of Whispers by Kimberley Starr
5.0
‘An epic novel that merges history, make-believe, romance and the harshness of the Middle Ages.’
PS News
‘A stunning mix of high action, enthralling history and mesmerising magic.’
Alison Goodman, author of New York Times bestsellers Eon and Eona
‘The Book of Whispers combines history, fantasy, romance and the brutality of the Middle Ages in a satisfyingly epic novel.’
Books+Publishing
‘The Book of Whispers is fast paced and bloody in parts, not shying away from the brutality of the period and the atrocities committed during the Crusades; but it also shrewdly challenges the reader to think about religion, extremism and tolerance - particularly in relation to a region where those topics have particular significance.’
Lamont Books
‘One of my favourites of this year.’
Tea in the Treetops
‘This is a memorable book that will make the reader think about the futility of war and the ugliness of religious bigotry. At the same time the adventure and mayhem that Luca and Suzan face will carry the reader through to the thrilling end.’
