Book Reviews of Here Be Dragons
Book Review: the last of the great Cymru Princes
Summary: 4 Stars
I have not read Sharon K. Penman's recent work "When Christ
and His Saints Slept" but I have read two of her works. Out
of the many books I have read "Here Be Dragons" is one of
the best. It is a Saga of one of Wales' last princes and
the love for his dominion and his wife. It follows his life and his childrens' and is based on a true story. It is of true romanticism and chivalry. About the struggle of one tiny country with a big heart and plenty of courage
against British expansionism and the sinister King John. It is not only an enlightening page turner but has many comical parts aswell. It would truly make a good full blown feature length movie possibility worthy of sequels. You will never look at Wales the same way again.
Summary of Here Be Dragons
This is an absorbing historical novel of power and betrayal, loyalty and political intrigue in thirteenth-century England, Wales and France, centring on King John of England, younger brother to the brilliant Richard Lionheart, Joanna, his illegitimate but recognised daughter and Llewellyn Ab Iowerth, Prince of Gwynedd, a bitter opponent of English ways, laws and encroachment into Wales who becomes Joanna's husband.Wales Books
