Not only do the characters seem fully realized, but they feel alive as well. The story of this trilogy’s characters is one of the best in historical fiction. A very satisfying conclusion!Īn amazing conclusion filled with heart, struggle, and triumph! ![]() ![]() The characters we met in Chains are older and have gone through a lot, but it isn't hard to empathize with their struggle to find freedom and peace amidst the country's struggle for the same things. The story of Isabel, Corzon and Ruth was compelling as well. It made me sad to read it with two hundred plus years of hindsight, realizing how long the struggle would continue for ever basic civil rights. Yet, she also shows why so many were willing to sacrifice for a country that wasn't offering them freedom, because they believed that they needed to fight to gain their freedom. I love the historical accuracy of the book and Anderson's unflinching honesty about what life was like for enslaved and free blacks during the Revolution with both sides using their desire for freedom against them. ![]() All that is forgotten in my love of this conclusion. Forge was good, but suffered from middle book syndrome. So glad I finally got around to listening to this book. ![]()
