'A vivid novel by France's modern Dumas... [there is] plenty of evidence in the rich characterisation and vivid historical detail that a reader's long-term commitment will be amply rewarded' Sunday Times
'The mainstay of the novel is swashbuckling action... What stands out is Merle's eye for detail' Spectator
