This book is merely OK. The author overuses run-on sentences overflowing with "ands" which may have been intended to convey excitement, but serve to make it annoying to read. Also he seems to borrow heavily on themes from "Gone With The Wind" (blockade runner enlists near the desperate end of the war, leaving heroine to fend for herself) and "North and South" (mixed-race heroine passes as white, marries into white family; hero loses an arm in combat). By the time I finished reading it, I was not left wanting more, as with GWTW & N&S; rather, was relieved just to be finished with it.

I enjoyed reading this book. The characters are as engaging as in the first installment, and the plot takes some unexpected turns. The author weaves in backstory of the political wrangling & underlying issues surrounding the Civil War that is fascinating. Looking forward to reading the final book in the trilogy.

The book is more or less an infomercial for his website and seminars.
