Description

<p>In 1066, the rivalry between two brothers brought England to its knees. When Duke William of Normandy landed at Pevensey on September 28, 1066, no one was there to resist him. King Harold Godwineson was in the north, fighting his brother Tostig and a fierce Viking invasion. How could this have happened? Why would Tostig turn traitor to wreak revenge on his brother?<br />The Sons of Godwine were not always enemies. It took a massive Northumbrian uprising to tear them apart, making Tostig an exile and Harold his sworn enemy. And when 1066 came to an end, all the Godwinesons were dead except one: Wulfnoth, hostage in Normandy. For two generations, Godwine and his sons were a mighty force, but their power faded away as the Anglo-Saxon era came to a close.</p>

Story Behind The Book

Reviews

By JacquieMT Format:Kindle Edition Ms. Lynch has done it again bringing her fans another masterpiece of a story for any age. You will find yourself rooting for the main character and fighting right along side her. Her writing style pulls you in and leaves you breathless and excited. Trying to deal with the death of her father and moving to a new town, Loralee finds herself drawn to a mansion filled with memories. Children's voices call to her, pulling her deeper into the truths of what really happened many years before. Can she help the ghosts that beckon her? But when a mistress of darkness has other plans, Loralee will find herself struggling to fight a battle she never expected to have to endure. I was gifted a copy from the author for an honest review. By Alex Laybourne &quot;Alex Laybourne&quot; (Netherlands) - See all my reviews This review is from: The Taken (Kindle Edition) I have had the privilege of being and advanced copy reader for Ms. Lynch on several occasions, and never once has she disappointed me. The Taken is a stunningly crafted, imaginative and well written story, that will hold readers spellbound. The story moves at a pace, comes with enough jumps and scares to keep the older readers entertained and on the edge of their seat, but also manages to provide enough supplementary story and action for those that are less fans of the jumps and more for the rest of the story. I felt an immediate connection to Loralee and thought the strained relationship with her mother was perfectly written once more. Another character I fell in love with was Camberly. She is the school's Queen Bee and as Loralee (Lele) is the new girl, they of course do not get along. Throw in a developing relationship between Lele and her Camberly's ex-flame and you have a recipe for a great character dynamic. The book is a must read and thoroughly deserves to be on everybody TBR pile. Julianne Lynch is an author moving from strength to strength, ever title shows her growth as a writer, and as a parent to five children, she is an inspiration to me, and should be to everybody.
