Whilst I am a history buff, and historical fiction fan, this isn't for me. Knowing the realities of certain events does not make them things I wish to read about. Even within this first look, it is brutal, bloody and cruel, and I book that I wish to avoid reading is not one I can review.
I also found the writing style to be quite halting and not easy to absorb.
