ReviewsThe Stone Crown is a fantasy which will intrigue teen and adult readers. * Aussie Reviews * The Stone Crown is one of the best historical novels that I have read in a long time. I became so engrossed in the characters' lives that the pages just seemed to fly by. Five hundred pages in, and I didn't want the end to come. This is a book filled with the magic of the Dark Ages and, as a reader, I certainly felt completely entranced by it... I recommend it highly; it was a fantastic read. * Historical Novel Society, UK *
