Whether you're a prince, princess, king queen or pauper in the street, or even the ones reading the reviews, we have same natural appetites except that they can become the fault that causes the demise of a kingdom.
Eve led us to death by eating an apple for the weakness of wanting to be better than she was created.
Romans fell from grace through their own devices.
I think there should be lessons in this narrative not only for the characters weaknesses for sex but for what it should take to be a conqueror without succumbing to fleeting illusions of romance and raging hormones.

I like historical fiction but not so much the fantasy part. This sounds entertaining though. Thank you for your review!

I loved the way this review balanced the "I liked..." with the "unfortunately lacking in..." elements. a great sense of fairness, and it is clear you did enjoy reading and reviewing Apollo's Raven.

The aim of every author is to make his or her book as enjoyable as possible to the readers. The suspense, tension and emotion embedded in the book is enough to arouse this interest. Wonderful review

I was intrigued to read your review because you have given it 3 out of 4 stars when most of the reviews for this book were 4 out of 4 stars. I should say, the rating is very much fair given the lack of originality. But it seems to be such a good read because I love historic fiction and would like to read it. Thank you for the review!
