Fantastic writer but this wasn't one of her best July 26, 2008 P. White (Oldham, Lancs,England) 3 out of 7 found this review helpful
I had eagerly awaited Lesley Pearse's latest offering as she is my favourite writer, however I was very disappointed by this book. It started off really well but felt once Gypsy arrived in America on to Canada the whole story seemed to recyle itself continually. The whole senario of her playing the violin in the alehouses and everyone loving it somehow did not sit well with me. Definately not one of my favourites from this writer
Better and better! July 25, 2008 LAM (Nottinghamshire) 8 out of 9 found this review helpful
I couldn't wait to get my hands on this, Lesley Pearse's latest novel, having read and thoroughly enjoyed all of her other titles. The only disappointment was that I read the book so quickly!!!
As ever, Lesley Pearse has researched the setting for this book extremely well. Set in the Gold rush era at the end of the 19th century, all of the characters are well depicted, and I could almost imagine myself enduring the cold, harsh conditions of the Canadian winter.
It never ceases to amaze me just how varied Lesley Pearse's books are, but one thing can be guaranteed - they're always an excellent read.
I'm now looking forward to the next one ........
