good but short story
story is good but book is extremely short. Also, no pauses between chapters is bit annoying.

Great first book
I really like the books in a series, this is a new author and new time setting for me. I will be continuing this journey. There is a lot packed in to this book which is so wonderfully descriptive you can see it. I don't know anything about this era school n Britain but I'll be finding out confident that the author has more than done his research well. I hope that around the fiction it is also faithful to what is known and therefore believable
