Good mystery set in the late days of the Ottoman Empire. If you like historical fiction you will like this. Great detail in the descriptions of this lush life and it's nuances
A murder mystery which took place in the fascinating world of the Ottoman Empire. I really enjoyed it.
Interesting view of a culture in the past.
the book is good has many turns & twist and keeps changing to different character telling what is happing which i didn't care for and i thought it left a couple loose ends
"Intricate and subtle as a Turkish carpet, lush as silk upon the skin, The Sultan's Seal is a fascinating and remarkably knowledgeable look at a society in flux, with its very appealing characters caught between East and West, Islam and Christianity, and bound in a web of murder and treachery that only the lucky few may escape."-Diana Gabaldon
