The Chocolate Lady (94 KP) rated Brides in the Sky: Stories and a Novella in Books
Oct 7, 2020
As promised, my first book review of the New Year is for "Brides in the Sky" by Cary Holliday, which is a collection of mostly historical fiction short stories and a novella. If you ask me, shorter fiction is harder to write than novels, and you can find out if Holladay succeeded with this format on my new blog, here https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2019/01/04/inconvenient-separations/
Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2057 KP) rated Fourth Dawn (A.D. Chronicles #4) in Books
Mar 9, 2018

Deborah (162 KP) rated The Marsh Hawk in Books

I don't know if my expectations were too high with all the really positive reviews, but this one didn't grab me as much as I'd hoped. The villain is really very, very wicked and the protagonist must be as blind as bats!
I like at least an attemp at historical accuracy in my historical fiction, but there were some odd things going on here IMO. First Floor conservatory? Unlikely - or an Americanism?!
