I was very skeptical when I first came across this as I'm not generally interested in old time books but once I started reading it actually turned out to be a very well written and Interesting book so I will definitely consider reading the whole book. The style of writing was very good and fit the old time style and was very easily understood for the reader. The characters were easily visualised from the discriptions written by the author and each characters were different from one another so it wasn't boring. I would definitely reccomend this book to my friends and family to read. But for me the cover for the book wasn't very enticing to make you want to pick up as it was very lame in my opinion.
