Male Reader


(1 Stern)

Male Reader at Chapter 3A is enough to drive anyone crazy. He reads one word at a time, as an example: “One” “word” “at” “a” time.” I do hope he’s replaced in later chapters.

a good story


(4 Sterne)

A very old fashioned tale which needs editing to cut out some of the excess verbiage. But worth a listen.

a passionate romance!


(5 Sterne)

A passionate romance, an enjoyable story! Far from politically correct by today's standards but once you get past that and treat it for the fantasy it is, it's a gripping and rollicking read.
