I still have that hard cover copy and, according to my scripplings, the next will be my fifth reading. Couldn't recommend another book more for historical fiction lovers. Ms. Laker is indeed one of my greatest influences in becoming a historical fiction writer. Looking forward to more of your recommendations.Donna Russo Morinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07708547556444246368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5552020989914140175.post-17751610273226938072010-07-10T12:10:43.194-04:002010-07-10T12:10:43.194-04:00Oh, sad!

I got rid of all my Laker books before reading the majority of them (I think I had four?) because I started reading Venetian Mask- which I see you really enjoyed- and just couldn't finish it.
