Title: Promising but fails to deliver
Product review: This is one of those books I found most promising and I wanted to like it even more. But it gets to be boring and it doesn't completely deliver. The idea is there. And it has an excellent start but then it doesn't lift off. Still, it can make a good easy read. The characters are quite one-dimensional, particularly the heroine Queen Esther, who never truly comes to life. Historical fiction is such a hard genre and this book proves it. Yet, it is not completely bad. It has its moments.
