2 out of 5 stars not recommended   July 16, 2008
I enjoyed Labyrinthe for its gripping story and looked forward to reading this one. It was disappointing and actually became a chore to finish. The writing is not crisp and the result is too long; it needed a good editor. Whoever proofread the final version also did a sloppy job.

Mosse has used the technique of duel time periods successfully before, but this time I don't think it worked. The introduction of American English for Meredith's appearance grated and was unnecessary. The characters were not particularly well drawn and suffered from being two dimensional. I found I did not care what happened to any of them.



3 out of 5 stars Average at best   July 13, 2008
There are quite a lot of polarised views here and whilst I can appreciate the views of the 1 Star reviewers, I do feel its current average of 3 stars is about right. This is a very average read. The historical story is the saving grace really. I liked Leonie, I thought her characterisation was pretty good and as the real heroine, one wanted her to prevail. the problem for me was the linkages between her and Meredith just didn't stack up. They were just too ethereal. The criticisms already leveled by others about the modern day characters are spot on and for this story to succeed, both strands of the story have got to be credible as has the way they intertwine (obviously notwithstanding the need to suspend belief). The climax is anything but. I couldn't believe how weak it was, given all the build up. I certainly shan't be first in the queue to but Ms Mosse's next offering.


5 out of 5 stars Completely Brilliant!!!   July 13, 2008

Sepulchre is, in my opinion, even better than Labyrinth - it is a very gripping book and i couldn't put it down! The story is told through both the past and the present and both are as exciting as each other. The book seemed slightly slow at the beginning but once I got into it it was hard to stop. This book deserves 5 stars!!!!!


1 out of 5 stars Do not bother if you have any sense!   July 11, 2008

I had read Labyrinth which was 'OK' but this left me cold! The story could have been so good given the various elements but ended up very weakly crafted and so far too long.The language made me cringe in parts!As the heroine strips off her last undergarment the hero says 'Wow!' That sums it all up really!!!!!!!


5 out of 5 stars Excellent!!   July 3, 2008
