Sarah, there’s not much war gore but there are medical procedures: amputations and childbirth. Although these scenes are graphic, they felt organic to the story and did not bother me. But if blood is disturbing, this might not be the book for you.

I’m not too good on war gore.

Thanks, Linda. I almost never read historical fiction, but I enjoyed this. Robin writes with such confidence.

I agree, from the excerpts you’ve chosen, she has a delightful way with words. Another one to add to my list. Thank you.
