Review title: A fascinating work of historical fiction
Product review: Truthfully, I wasn't quite sure I was up to such a lengthy novel, but Carr did a superb job of developing and interrelating the characters and the plotlines. The details of the time period seemed quite authentic; my only criticism is that I could have done without Teddy Roosevelt actually written into the plot. Dr. Kriezler - the alienist - is a fascinating character nicely complemented by the supporting cast. I urge anyone who remotely liked this novel to give The Angel of Darkness a read. In my opinion, it equals if not surpasses The Alienist, featuring most of the same characters who take on the evil Libby Hatcher...
