I love Morgan Llywelyn writting, and I love the books all the more because I am a history buff and rarely (if ever) have I found myself disappointed by the accounts of history in her books. In most books that deal with any sort of historic fact or events I find myself frustrated or thrown off track in the middle of reading and loosing focus in the book because of inaccuracy or misfact. This can really detract from the experience of a story when your mind is yelling "no that's wrong", "no the time sequence is off- that hasn't happened yet", "no that was invented yet, this isn't realistic" or etc... since I don't have this issue with Llywelyn's books I'm able to sit down and really enjoy the creativity, story, depth of charactors and depth of emotion she spins into her writting.
