The Company

Staggering.

This novel was full of crafty fiction, accurate history, and excellent depth. Few works of historical fiction are as engaging and, from my seat, appear as well researched.

2nd READ UPDATE:
This book was even better the second time. I can't believe I gave it only 4-starts. I'm upping it to five. Silly me!

I'm rating this a 4 not because I liked it but, because it was well written. I can't give it a bad mark just because it isn't my type. It is good and full of mystery and double meanings behind the words.

Again, it just wasn't my thing.
Personal rating is like a 1 and if my Fiance hadn't told me this was his favorite book I would have dropped it after page 2.

But well written and lots of characters with personality. And lots of turns and lies you don't see coming.
