| I think "Son of Charlemagne" was very interesting. Before reading the book, I didn't think that well of Charlemagne, but after reading this book, my opinion changed. This book develops the life of Charlemagne through the eyes of his son, Carl. The plot was well developed, but on the negative side, the continuing change in area was confusing. The constant change from city to city was confusing, especially when I would go a few days without reading it. There was also many main characters, and so it ... Read More: |

| I really liked this book. My favorite character was Wolf. I liked the ending part best where something happens to Wolf and Fritha, but you'll have to read the book to find out how it ends. When we started to read it, it became interesting, so I listened and liked the whole thing. |

| 6.LARK AND THE LAUREL (The Mantlemass Chronicles) by: Barbara Willard April 01, 1989 |

| I've read several of Barbara Willard's books, and the Lark and the Laurel is really the beginning of the Mantlemass Chronicles. While the language may be a bit difficult for teenage (14 and up) readers to plow through, the historical descriptions and politics that play out in it are wonderful. (And accurate from what little I've read of the period!) Social customs, class structures and well-worded descriptions of late medieval to early renaissance England fill her books. If you like this series, I recommend ... Read More: |
