All the history, swashbuckling and adventure of 18th century France. This book takes place during the French revolution and is a condemnation of it and its excesses. Against the back drop of a chaotic time it tells a love story of a Knight and a Revolutionary and the conflicts and issues that arise. It parallels A Tale of Two Cities in many ways but gives a different point of view. It is worth reading in my view. <br/><br/><a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/list/619375?utm_medium=api&utm_source=blog_review">View all my reviews.</a>
