Title: Not only a saga of a family, but of a country as well
Review: I am a 17 yr old boy who was not interested at all in this series for years after we got it. My mom and sister read them but I thought that they were just fictions about a girl. Then I read the first one out of curiosity. These books take you through the Russian Revelution through the eyes of an aristocrat, a servant, a revolutionary, a political prisoner, and a peasant (serf) family. If you have ever wanted to know more about russia's history or how their government worked, or if you want to hear the diferent opinions on revolution against a tyranical government, or if you just want a good story about a serf girl with no future who is risen to a position that is beyond her imagination, read these books. And Please--- read them in order, they have such an interlocking plot that you would ruin your enjoyment if you read ahead.
