â€œSet in the 17th century bucolic bliss of the Exmoor countryside, Lornaâ€™s idyll is violently disturbed by the stirrings of the English Civil War. We follow the course of her adventures through the eyes of John Ridd, a young yeoman who is out to win Lornaâ€™s heart and avenge the murder of his father at the hands of the notorious Doone clan. In their first encounter, love blossoms: as she tends to him after an accident, John remarks that he has never â€˜seen anything so beautiful as the large dark eyes intent upon meâ€™.â€ Anna Savva, The Lady

â€œWhat an awesome tale. There are lots of ups and downs and surprises, along with the author's gorgeous prose describing the English countryside and farmlife . . . Highly highly recommended. If you enjoy Thomas Hardy, Charlotte Bronte or Dickens this will probably be right up your alley. â€ Misfit

â€œI absolutely loved this book. It is historical fiction, romance novel, botanical guide, political satire, action/adventure and guide to farm management and animal husbandry all in one.â€ Glenn

â€œIt is a book far above the standard of the ordinary novel â€” a book full of the truest nature and beautiful thoughts.â€ Margaret Oliphant, VictorianWeb.com
