This is a well-written historical fiction novel about one of my favorite time periods, the 18th century. The characters were memorable, and I intend upon reading more by the author.

"Writer/Director Armando Iannucci can do no wrong in my book. I love his subject matter (power) and his humor (as black as it comes). This is my kind of historical fiction."

"A sensational novel in all sorts of ways, this study of gender, history and power was one of the books that made me want to start writing historical fiction of my own."

This new historical fiction book is also biographical fiction, and it might appeal to lovers of historical fantasy, because of the paranormal elements included. "Cher Ami and Major Whittlesey" tells the story of a soldier in WWI and the homing pigeon that helped rescue his battalion. I hope you'll take a look at my #bookreview of this beautifully written novel by Kathleen Rooney​ on my blog now.
