Customer Reviews

Exceptional Writing

I first fell in love with Barbara Taylor Bradford's work "A Woman of Substance." Then I proceeded to read everybook that came out and I was in awe. Power of a Woman is well written with the right mixture of Romance and Intelligence. To me "A Woman of Substance" was more powerful but BTB has shown that she is consistent and a great storyteller!

The Power Of Romance

Barbara Taylor Bradford's fans will love this story about precious jewels and precious relationships!

A NICE BOOK FROM A VERY PROLIFIC AUTHOR

For lovers of romantic books, this is a very nice piece. Barbara Taylor Bradford is not a perfect author. But then nobody's perfect, so why would I want perfection from her? But let's go back to the subject: this book is about lost, hate, vingeance, and obviously, love and how we learn from these feelings. The plot itself is not very cool. Barbara has a way of telling the story that sometimes make the reader wonder why he/she is still reading the book. But what's worth with her is exactly this: the up and downs of the book and the good sensation you get after reading her books. Personally, I found this to be one of her best books. After reading it, you don't regret and, to the credit of Barbara - and to her cash also - you want to read another. Then you become a frequent reader of hers without realize it. Isn't that wonderful? :)Marco Aurelio - contact: deankoontzfan@hotmail.com

If you love Dynasty, here is a book for you

Some people love to read novels set in upper class surroundings, portraying family dynamics. Here is a book for them. With this genre you cannot expect deep characters and a clever plot. The beauty of these books lies elsewhere, and many readers will find them shallow. I was impressed by the language, and Bradford is obviously a better writer than many bestseller authors.

DO NOT care for what people have been saying!

Barbara Taylor Bradford is a wonderful writer. I do think she is the Danielle Steel of England. Here in Brazil she's a famous writer, and most of the women who reads her usually enjoy her books. I'm a boy who soon learned to read almost every kind of book. And romantic books are also in my shelves. POWER OF A WOMAN is an excelent book. One of Barbara's best ever. It has a fast plot (I started reading it and when I realized I was on page 100!), an interesting plot and, better, a good ending. Buy that book. You won't be disappointed. You couldn't be, when talking about Barbara Taylor Bradford. A master!
