Eagle and the Dove

Summary: Superb!
Review: I absolutely loved this book!!! Fantastic story, page-turner, couldn't put it down and what-have-you. The thought of 'a soul in exchange for a kingdom'...passionate and romantic. Jane's detailed description of the Alhambra...so true. This book got me interested in Ancient Spanish history all over again. Note: Know this is purely fiction but adding Boabdil el chico to the story made it almost believably true. Also, Muley Hassan is in fact a Caliph before Boabdil's reign but it is actually Muley Ali Hassan. Overall great read...recommend it.

Summary: This book has a sizzling undercurrent!
Review: I liked the book pretty well. The characters were great. The plot wasn't especially good. The undercurrent between the hero and the heroine was superb. All the way through the book, I could feel it. I thought the beginning and middle were the best parts. Then when the end comes, it's like is this it. No wonderful ending. Although, I did learn something about the time period. The ritual about the bathing were interesting. All in all, it was a good book. Not as great as her other books. Try reading it and see what you think. email me and tell me what you think @ [e-mail]

Summary: I agree....BORING!
Review: Jane Feather has made her characters in the Eagle and the Dove so vibrant and compelling that I was quite bereft at the books conclusion. I was so moved by Sarita's passion and by Abul's loving sacrifice for his soul mate. It was hard for me to put this book down each night! I really loved this book!!!

Summary: I agree....BORING!
Review: The only thing good about this book was the very first chapter and because of that chapter, I thought the book was going to be a page turner. I was completely mislead. This book was totally boring. It did not reach me at an emotional level at all. I did not find any part of this book exciting in the least and at times, I had to force myself not to put it down and never pick it back up because the author babbled on about stupid stuff. I had looked forward to reading this book and am sorry to say that I was very dissapointed. I would have to be desperate to pick up another by this author.
