Another Great read on a Chaotic Period, 29 Jan. 2015

Verified Purchase(What is this?)
This review is from: The Swan-Daughter (The Daughters of Hastings Book 2) (Kindle Edition)
This is the second of Carol McGrath's books on the daughters of King Harold (of arrow in the eye fame).
As in the Handfasted Wife, her first book in the series, this is a meticulously researched book. fortunately Carol has the gift of not letting this get in the way of telling a rollicking good story. Its a fascinating era to write about, and in Carol's capable hands, to read about as well.
Alternating between England and Brittany, in a time when the Doomsday Book was causing all of England to re-evalueate their lives, and with a cracking love story at its heart, this was a really good read.
Now I'm looking forward to the final book in the trilogy.
