I quite enjoyed The Shakespeare Secret so was looking forward to a fun read from this book. Unfortunately, Carrell comes across as a bit patronising, explaining practically everything that her characters say in depth. This makes the book much longer than it needs to be. Also she would have us believe that everyone in Scotland is a practising Pagan. It all seems a bit unbelievable...
I did enjoy the last 60 or so pages, could have done with a ruthless edit to make it 3 stars.

Another great read in this series-- really wish I had studied Shakespeare more when I was in school.
