Product Information

Jon dreams Ghost sensing Nymeria sing to the moon with her pack of wolves in the riverlands, and Shaggydog fighting a unicorn on Skagos. No matter what one's political views might be, Smith (and his "with" collaborating author) open one's eyes to the unfair practices of second-class citizenship in the mid 1700's for the people to whom the land and country belong. Ma si sa i, destino è beffardo e li farà rincontrare e vedere quanto sono cambiati rispetto a quando erano bambini. But from the first moment Mansur spied Verity through a telescope, on the deck of her father’s ship, he had fallen absolutely in love with her. I know it was 1754 and I actually disagree with some reviews that she wasn’t written well but it was disappointing that she went from one abuser to another man that turned out to be worse then the last.

After Theo and Connie have a falling out, the former joins the fight to quell the local uprising, while Connie finds herself captured and detained.The only weapon she has at her disposal is her sexuality, when in reality her character is more than beautiful; she is smart, resourceful, and strong.

An epic story of tragedy, loss, betrayal and courage that brings the reader deep into the seething heart of the French Indian War.The rich sensory details transport one to India in colonial times: food, fabrics, cocktails, carousing, and plenty of prejudicial stupidity on the parts of the colonizing European countries. I understand this is 1754 Imperial England (and, thus, a "man's world"), but the way she was portrayed is a complete injustice. For example her decision to leave Quebec is too sudden and illogical because in Paris, she has a bad reputation and a spiteful former lover.
