The books in this series are absolutely incredible. The characters are very well developed, they are historically rich, and they are easy and fun to read. I read them until the covers were falling apart and I had parts of them memorized. I highly recommend them to anyone - even those who don't usually enjoy reading.
I could see what I was reading

I loved this story, especially because it was like I could see the things happening and where they happened. T. Elizabeth Renich wrote about places near where I live, and she did a good job in writing about them. Her research shows. I like the way her characters interact with real historical figures. She made the history a lot more enjoyable by doing that (I got an A on my book report because I actually learned as I read.) I never knew there was stuff that had to do with the war going on in California since it seemed to be mostly in Virginia. And I could relate to Salina, she seems like a real person and not just a made up one. I'm one of those people T. Elizabeth Renich mentioned in her Dedication, because after reading the first book, I wanted to know what happened next. Now I can hardly wait to find out what happens next in the third book!
