Customer Reviews

a good read

I enjoyed this book as I have all the others in this series, the author, being a "Master" herself writes of something she knows and loves and it shows in her stories.

One of the finest series of modern fiction

Please see my comments in reply to the prior reviewer. It is my opinion that this series is one of the best of modern fiction. I do agree that it should be read from first publication to last. I hope that Ms. Brown will not change due to pressure of reviews and leave out details that do much to suspend disbelief and immerse us in her most enjoyable characters-if only for the length of the reading! Again, I will say that I want to enjoy Sister Jane's morning coffee, walk with her to the older and younger fox dens and see through her extraordinarily observant eyes. There is much to be learned from these novels about how we live today as opposed to how we could live.

Rita Mae at her best.

As per usual,complex characters and local flavor are drawn with exquisite and loving detail. As a horse lover and lover of other creatures both domestic and wild, Rita Mae's writing speaks to my soul. Kat Lodge, Clarion, Iowa.

Rita Mae does it again!

As always, Rita Mae Brown delivers a stellar novel. Loved this book because she keeps the characters going but adds new dimensions to them. I am looking forward to her next book.
