A review by klherring
The Summer Queen by Elizabeth Chadwick

3.0

This was my first Chadwick novel and I wasn't sure what to expect. I love historical fiction, but hate those that fall into the category of historical romance. I was anxious that this might slide a little into that realm and was really pleased to find that it did not. I haven't read much about Eleanor of Aquitaine, and so this was an educational read for me. While I enjoyed, I did find it a little tedious at times, though I can't say what really caused my interest to lapse. However, I think I will enjoy reading the rest of this serious and other works by this author. Nice work and well researched!
