Hi Jeff, thank you for the excellent review. This year has flown by, and I missed seeing it until this morning.
I am so happy you enjoyed the book, and how well it fits with actual history. If you're on X, I posted a few pictures of places featured in the book: search for couronne johnbeachtx search for securedinstone thann (sorry there are no links here--Goodreads does not allow that.)
I wrote the book before I had ever seen these places, and so it truly was amazing to visit La Couronne, Rouen, Thann, the ruins of Englebourg Castle, and the lovely countryside in Alsace-Lorraine.
All the best to you, and thank you again for your review.
