A review by jjohans3
The Sword and the Dagger by Robert Cochran
3.0
I really enjoyed the beginning and the ending of this book. The reason I gave only 3 stars is because the middle was super difficult to get through. I actually put the book down for two months because I couldn’t get through it. However, if you can make it through that part, the book is worth the read!
I really enjoyed the character development for all three of the main characters. I loved the feminism in this book (absolutely love Princess Elaine!). I even ended up liking Conrad by the end, even though he’s still a little thick headed.
It was a fun historical fiction, set in a time period I don’t often read about. It was sometimes infuriating to think of people actually living this way, which gives credit to how well the author was able to portray the period.
