Reader Reviews
Truly Magnificent!, October 29, 2003 Reviewer: romonko from alberta canada I wasn't going to begin this new series of Anne Perry's since I love the Pitt and Monk series so much. I thought that none could compare and it's a different historical time as well. I read the reviews for this book in Amazon and thought it probably wasn't worth the time. I am very glad that I didn't ignore this book! Ms. Perry weaves her web and draws her readers into the golden summer of 1914 in England as only she can. A much simpler age than now, surely, but underneath the idyllic setting is a very real threat and enormous danger. It is the dawn of the greatest war the world has ever experienced, and we the readers are right there in it. The book shows the fear, darkness and terror experienced by the people when an event occurs in faraway Sarajevo that will alter the world as they know it. English people know that this war will lead to mass destruction and to many thousands of deaths, and they are powerless to stop it. The book is set around a very small area of rural England (around Cambridge), but even in this sleepy little area the danger of the world creeps in. Murders occur that bring the terror to the citizens of Cambridge. We meet a whole new cast of characters that we hope to see in the future. Awesome! And the title is just as haunting as every page in this book - "NO GRAVES AS YET". --This text refers to the Hardcover edition
