“A great view into life in the 1200s and I must say I'm glad I live in the year 2009. I loved the love story and was drawn Joanna & Llewelyn from the beginning.”

It easily transports you into the castles and countryside. You feel a part of the political, economic, and social struggles of this time.”

“This trilogy is the whole reason my friends and I went to Wales. It is fantastic for readers who enjoy British history. Wales isn't as flashy as the Tudors, but if you're an Anglophile, pick this series up!”
