Chatelaine Jai Rose

Author Jai Rose?s epic Chatelaine achieves what good historical fiction should. Vividly entertaining, Rose conveys the very essence of medieval life during the Norman Conquest. Meticulously crafted, eloquently penned, her research is what distinguishes her novel from those of her contemporaries. Written in the vernacular, her main characters are fictionalized, but peripheral nobles are, indeed, historic figures. Her story is the life of Judith, an English girl of noble blood. After her father?s death at Hastings, she goes from her stepmother?s rule to that of her husband, the new Norman baron. She works to transform the Saxon estate to a true Norman hold, complete with castle. There is strife, injustice, war, greed, and lust. A marriage that begins in friendship ends as something more. And in the torchlit halls, there is the warmth of friendship, and the call of duty to one?s people. Это и многое другое вы найдете в книге Chatelaine (Jai Rose)
