Review # 1 was written on 2009-06-03 00:00:00 Laura Bollinger I wrote to the author and asked: why do you use real character names (such as Winston Churchill) and change names of other characters (Craine & his castle clearly refer to William Herst)? ---------------------------- their response: Dear Becky: Good question! When we have interviews with real people who met historical characters (like Churchill) then we are comfortable using real names. When the setting involves hear-say reports or is purely fictional (even if realistic and true to character) then we change the names. It's one of the requirements we impose on ourselves to keep the history as accurate and reliable as possible. Blessings, Bodie and Brock ------------------------------------------ anyway, I thought it was really good that they were trying to be historically accurate and not going overboard with creative license when it comes to actual people in history.

Review # 2 was written on 2016-02-13 00:00:00 Kyle Jones The second book in the series continues the reign of terror prior to the Second World War. The focus is on Austria, and later Prague. The Nazis seek to hunt down and destroy a small boy born with a cleft palate after murdering his father. Elisa is forced to decide whether to become more involved in illegal activities to help those she cares about. What has happened to Murphy now that he has married Elisa and which side is Otto really on? Almost as fascinating as the first book, but I felt the romantic scenes between Amanda and Murphy were clumsy and unnecessary. This, especially as Murphy is now married to Elisa. There was also a little more violence in this book than the previous one. Still worth reading though and recommended for the historical detail. I wish we could've studied these at school, it would've brought the history to life!
