5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully written exciting Viking saga, 27 July 2002
By "ambersaxon696" - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Surrender My Love (Mass Market Paperback)
"Surrender my Love" is the third in Johanna Lindsey's Viking trilogy and in my opinion it is as good as the previous two" Fires of Winter" and " Hearts Aflame". First of all I am very much interested in the history of Dark Age Britain and when I read a historical romance I want proper historical background in it as well. I think Ms Lindsey knows how to research the historical period and how to combine history with romance. I enjoyed reading about the Haardrad family; Garrick and Brenna and their children; Kristen and Selig, their everyday lives, their strong personalities and their courage. I could imagine myself in Lady Erica of Gronwood's place, the way she felt and thought about Selig.I could understand her personality very well. I loved the way Johanna Lindsey made Selig suffer and made him realize that not every woman falls for him immediately. I found the characters well described and alive. The verbal conversations were realistic and very enjoyable.I think some readers wouldn't like to read about lashing and violence in romance books, but the historical background wouldn't be real without it.
The storyline is very good in all thre books and they make the reader turn the pages faster and faster. I must admit I couldn't put down these books and read them in one day, going to bed at 3 am every day. I loved the way the writer combined the lives of Norsemen, Saxons, Celts and Danes and made them confront each other and even find peace with each other.

Johanna Lindsey proves in this trilogy how love can conquer everything.I wish there were more such professionally written historical romances from the era of Dark Age Britain.I recommend it to every reader who likes to escape from our everyday routines to exciting and beautiful stories.

4.0 out of 5 stars enjoyable escapism, 2 Dec 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: Surrender My Love (Mass Market Paperback)
I felt compelled to add my review after reading the one labelling this book as endorsement of domestic abuse. I could point out that this book is romantic fiction. I doubt I am the only woman who fantasises (yes please note that it is fantasy) about an intelligent, commanding hunk of testosterone induced masculinity throwing his weight around and throwing them over his shoulder and carting them off to the nearest bed.

There is nothing in this book which endorses domestic abuse or brutality. The reviewer who suggested it did is totally misleading any would be purchasers. This is, in my opinion, politically correct thinking taken to extremes. If life mirrored romantic fiction there wouldnt be any divorce now, would there?

For the record, the book does include a scene were the hero is lashed. Not an uncommon thing I would suggest in anglo saxon England. No doubt if JL had mentioned some villein having his ears cut off or his nose sliced (common punishments in those days) the reviewer would have said she was endorsing that too. The lashing referred to fits the plot, is in fact an integral part of the plot as is the twist which has the heroine in a similar predicament.

This is not my favourite JL book but it certainly rates up there with the best. Don't be put off by the bad review.

5.0 out of 5 stars Superb romance; I loved every second of this book., 27 April 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Surrender My Love (Mass Market Paperback)
Selia Haardrad, the gorgeous half Celtic half Viking, branded a spy and locked in Lady Erika's dungeon to await his fate. The whole story is based around Selig's thirst for revenge once he is released from the dungeon, taking Erika as a captive. He hates her, she hates him, but they slowly start to fall in love with each, much to their own disgust. You know how this is going to end, but even so it doesn't detract from the quick pace of the story and good characterisation throughout. Although to be honest, Selig does seem just too good to be true.....However, I really loved this book, as much as Fires of Winter and Hearts Aflame, the other Haardrad family books. As ever with Johanna Lindsey books the feel good factor is high and for a day or so takes you out of reality and places you firmly into fantasy. A lovely book to escape with.
