5.0 out of 5 stars Another fantastic read!, 10 Jan 2001
By A Customer
Ms. Chadwick has scored again. In this, her eleventh novel, she fictionalizes the life of sometime outlaw Fulke Fitzwarin. I started the book on an icy November afternoon, with a pot of tea and plate of gingersnaps at my side, and was immediately drawn back to the 12th century. As with all her books, Ms. Chadwick blends history and fiction with an expert touch. The romance between Fuke and Maude de Vavasour is touching, as they overcome great odds to marry and have a family while he battles with King John to recover his family's primary seat, Whittington Castle.

The plot was well paced and full of just the right combination of romance, adventure and history.

Fans of romantic historical fiction should not miss this latest triumph by one of the brightest stars in the world of medieval historical fiction.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellant!!, 7 Oct 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Lords of the White Castle (Paperback)
This is by far Elizabeth's best book to date. As usual, it takes me into the Mediaeval period where I can almost experience the life for myself. It's historically accurate too - I've checked!
This book has the accolade of being the only book (out of the many 100's that I have read) that has made me cry, such is the emotional content.
For readers awaiting a new novel, I would recommend Diana Gabaldon. Again, she absorbs you into the period and she is historiacally correct.

4.0 out of 5 stars enjoyable, 17 April 2001
By A Customer
I enjoyed the story, but wondered if it was a bit far fetched in places for an "historical" novel - as an historical romance, however, it was a good read. I think Sharon Penman and Helen Hollick perhaps have a slight edge over this particular novel though
