Christian Cameron Groupie

I have to say that this is NOT my usual genre but it was adjacent enough to my usual historical fiction that I decided to give it a try. 1. The stories are really good and the main character is very likable- enough to get me to listen to all 4 of the series! 2. Peter Noble is a magnificent reader- he could probably make the phone book interesting 3. The level of historical detail is spot on without being too heavy! Mr Cameron, I will be starting another one of your series ASAP!

Fantastic

I’ve actually stopped writing reviews for Christian Cameron because I feel like I say the same thing every time. And look, I love historical fiction, so I’ve read a lot of it - abs only discovered Mr. Cameron during the pandemic.

And I haven’t read anything by him that wasn’t deserving of five stars - and this was definitely no exception. The character development over the course of the four books is fantastic, story lines always interconnect with few vagaries, and he stays in line with what was a tidally occurring at the time to the best of a fiction writer’s ability to do so.

I eagerly await the next in line.

Weak ending

So that’s it? The series is pretty good but it just flat out ends. Not much of any kind of ending

Fantastic

Fantastic book and narrator all around. Sadly no date for the next book in the series.

Great series

Simply love this series, as most book by this author. A must read for fans of historical fiction.
