I have now finished HC1 book and I have to say that I have really enjoyed it.
At first I found it difficult to get into the story but I was not feeling well so my concentration level was very low. Once I was in the story I found it difficult to put down.
I would have chosen this book to read as it is an historic novel and I often go for historic novels.
It also covers a period of history I like and I had already read some books concerning this so it was great!
