David McK (3369 KP) rated The Last Berserker in Books

First entry in Angus Donald's new 'Fire Born' Viking series, in which the main character is what we would term as a Berserker (although never named as such).
This is set in an even earlier time period than his 'Holcroft Blood' series (set during the time of Charles II) or even his even-earlier set 'Outlaw' series (about Robin Hood), but - unfortunately - I found it to be inferior to both.
That's not to say that it's bad; just that it didn't resonate (with the twists not really hitting home) as much with me as this earlier series did.

The Chocolate Lady (94 KP) rated See What I Have Done in Books

The infamous Lizzie Borden was the woman the public (but not a jury) believed murdered her father and stepmother with an axe. Since the science of forensics at the time was primitive at best, they found neither proof of Lizzie's guilt or any other suspects. That means we will never know the whole truth. Sarah Schmidt has her own ideas about Lizzie Borden, her family and the murders, all of which she put into her debut novel "See What I Have Done." Read my review of this fascinating book here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2017/06/10/the-clock-on-the-mantle-ticked-ticked/
