Customer Reviews

Wonderfuly Written!

I would highly recommend The Posion Place by Mary E. Lyons. It is truly a gem of a book. A fasinating story, told in the words of a formor slave, makes it come alive, and keeps you wondering, 'What happens next?' If you don't like historical fiction books, you should still try this novel. It's difinetly one in a class of it's own!
