Here Be Dragons: A Novel (Welsh Princes Trilogy Book 1)

My God! I do not think I have ever read such a more heart-rending and beautiful story in my life! And that is saying a lot as I am 40+ and have been reading since elementary school. I know I will not do this review justice as there are no adequate words for this book and I am writing on high emotions and no planning of my thoughts. I am sitting at work and I cannot concentrate for my mind keeps going back to these characters, one minute I am smiling the next tearing up. SKP has a way of making medieval England and Wales come alive. This was my first introduction to historical Wales and I am devouring google for more information of their history and people. This is the first book in a trilogy and I am diving into the second and have ordered the third. Historical fiction is my first love and I have a feeling in the future I will measure all historical books to SKP’s writing.

If you love a good romp through medieval times then I strongly suggest picking this magnificent book up. I will say it’s a little slow going the first 50-100 pages but do not be discouraged and hang in there for you will be rewarded.
