Whisper on the Wind (Romance)

updated Jun 09, 2010 12:56pm
Description:
The setting is Belgium, 1916, at the height of the German occupation of World War One. It's a story inspired by the true events of a clandestine newspaper called La Libre Belgique, whose goal at the time was to offer hope to oppressed Belgians—and to defy their heavy-handed occupiers. It's both a romance and an intrigue, where the character's risk their lives to do what they believe is right.

| I almost gave up on this one, much to my own disappointment. Ken Follet has produced some of my favorite books in the past, but unfortunately this one isn't one of them - it's just too long. For the first 200 pages, the writing is repetitive and so p...more | |

| This was a very interesting read! The author (whose actual name is being protected) spent five years living in Afghanistan to help and minister to the women there, and this book covers many of her experiences. As she carefully and cautiously spoke of...more | |

| I really, really liked this book - it was a fast read for me because I didn't want to put it down. The premise of amnesia might not be the most original in the world, but when it's used in such an entertaining way, who cares? I loved the characters a...more | |
