Labyrinth by Kate Mosse

4.0

Labyrinth was a journey. But not just a journey involving two women. It was one in which France (especially the French countryside) is a living, breathing character. What most excited me about this read was the fact that I've been to two of the main castles that make up the setting for Labyrinth. So, when the main character described a certain room or strolling through the town, I thought back to when I was straight out of college, exploring the French countryside with two amazing friends, and I can't help but love this story even more.

Besides the fact that it involves French culture, setting, and language, I liked Labyrinth for its breadth of knowledge about Catharism (which I had no idea existed) and the way in which it presented the Holy Grail. Interesting, to say the least!
