Reviews

[``Laurie]

Angelica and Francesca is one of those WTH is going on? books - but at the end of this short story you will be able to understand why Angelica and Francesca behave in such a wicked way.

An absolutely stunning book that I'm finding difficult to shelve. Should this be considered a book of Horror, or maybe Fantasy?

I'm anxious to hear what my Goodreads friends have to say after reading this one.

[Matilda]

Angelica and Francesca, who are both duchesses and twin sisters, constantly inflict violence against their father's wishes. Their father, Pellrue, cannot gain control of them or the situation no matter what he does. As a result of this, the Duke becomes more and more desperate, and in my view, illogical. Everything unfolds rapidly making for a marvelous ending.

[Ketutar Jensen]

It's pretty bad.
The dialogue is stupid, over-simplified, doesn't lead the story much anywhere, the resolution is... er... what? *rolling eyes*

You just separate the girls, put them in house arrest and live happily ever after. The End.

The only thing good about this is that it's really short. But - read something else. Don't waste your time on this.

Though I have to say that the idea is interesting. Maybe if it was written as a full long novel by a better author with better understanding of the things he's writing about...
