I love the way the end of the book was wrapped up, even with a coming sequel.
The book has quite a handful of memorable characters and it is an advantage.
Definitely checking the book out.
Nice review.

Just finished reading this book earlier this week. I thought that it was a good book, but I found it had a very predictable ending. I enjoyed reading it though and am eager to read the other books in the series now.

It sounds like just the book I'd like to read - one of those which start inconspicuously and then suddenly everything is mysterious. Though I think I'll start from the first book in the series.

I just finished reading this book and I too noticed the delightful characterization of Claire who was indeed just what you would expect an active 7-year-old girl to be like. I thought it made for good contrast and some relief from the darker main story. I enjoyed this author's writing and read the story in a couple of sittings. Thanks for your review!

House of Eire: A Hillary Broome Novel is the third in a series of novels by June Gillam. I should have disliked it. Billed as a mystery, nothing much happens in the first half of the book. However, the novel is so well written, and most of the characters rich and amiable, that I had difficulty putting it down from page one.

Make a Travel is sure a good things. I like the way That the author describe the Travel. It makes you want to take a fly. I like also the mystery all over the Reading.
