Dear Mrs. Davison,
Earlier this year I read your first novel “Duking Days:Rebellion.” As I said, it took me back to my early days of reading historical fiction rather than true romance books. When I finished it, I already had plans to read the sequel, “Duking Days: Revolution.” This story does take up exactly where the first left off so I would not recommend readers start here. Even I had to stop a few times at the beginning and recall names and events from “Rebellion.”
“Revolution” is more saga-ish than a standard historical romance, following multiple people and story threads over a seven year time frame. It doesn’t really feel quite like either a romance novel or a historical novel - more bit of both with touch of something different. Kind of like the more old fashioned stories of the sixties and seventies but without the soap opera melodrama that so often dragged those stories far past my tolerance level.
Like “Rebellion,” it’s filled with great period detail but I got tired of Helena constantly being the ignorant one to whom things get explained in order …
