Title: Richly woven tapestry
Review: I don't think I can add much more to what has already been noted by other reviewers for this book (there are so many reviews), but I did want to add another 5-star rating to its credit.This isn't a "hold on to the seat of your pants" kind of book, but is instead a very intelligent and thoughtful novel that focuses on an imaginative, inventive, and magical alter-England. It does require patience to read because of the sheer enormity of the novel, but the rich descriptions and characters build up the story in well-developed layers, making it a sincere pleasure to read.I sincerely hope that Ms. Clarke continues to explore her writing potential--because with this as her first offering, I can't wait to see what else she has to offer in future!
