In the Press
“This is a terrific story of double-dealing and adventure. Not only does L. Brittney get across the history in an exciting and entertaining way, she also brings in Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure as the subplot. Aimed at boys of 10 plus but girls who like historical adventures should enjoy it as well.”
Historical Novel Society
“This escapade, involving the quest to nab some Spanish gold, takes Nathan and his mentor John Pearce to the Netherlands and Cologne, into a dangerous Europe where witches are being burned at the stake. Expect furious swordplay, tremendous chases, atmospheric journeys and wince-inducing reminders that this was an age before anaesthetics. There is also a horrible scene involving Queen Elizabeth and her rotting teeth. History in all its rank-smelling glory!”
