The Poldark series is terrific historical romantic drama and is quickly getting under my skin. The second installment with Demelza Carne, the free-spirited daughter of a poor miner, who has not had an easy life thus far, is now married to Ross. This matchup certainly shifts the intrigue level. And although Ross is still unsettled by the loss of Elizabeth, now married to his cousin, Demelza eases that heartache a bit. This one is even better than the first book introducing readers to Ross Poldark

Even though there's much more (view spoiler) in this sequel I enjoyed it even more than the first. Even though you kind of wish it could all be about the main characters because you love them so much even the minor characters are just so well-drawn that you can't help but become absorbed with their lives. Graham's descriptions of the setting are so lovely that 18th-century Cornwall comes alive before your eyes. There are some en

It did end in an odd place in the storyline of the Poldark saga. If I had not seen the series this may have bothered me somewhat, but I know what happens next, so I'm not anticipating the next book as much.
I still love the story, and am still intrigued by what the current series has changed from the novels. Some characters in the novel have more depth, while others in the novel are a little less lovable than in the television series. ...more

Love the Poldark series, this is the meat of the story, with the marriage and birth of Julia. Excellent book and series.
