My Take: I loved this book! More than Fall of Giants and more than Winter of the World. The characters were fascinating and engaging. I knew little of this time period but the book created enough interest for me that I did research the period a little further. I was unsettled by the animal abuse more than the rapes, but that's just me. Animal abuse is a sensitive topic for me so I found those parts difficult. The book is very large and I would have preferred the graphic issues be edited out. I just don't need that kind of stimulation to keep my interest in a book but I understand that I am not representative of the majority of readers. I'm looking forward to the sequel!
