My first by Julie Beard, and I was not impressed,
By Gemma "bookworm" (Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Falcon and the Sword (Paperback)
I've been trying to find more authors to put on my auto-buy list, and Julie Beard will definitely not be one of them. I was turned off on the second page (that's got to be a new record for me). A rundown of the prologue: Christian soldier fighting in the crusades is mortally wounded. The Lady of Lonegrine (who the hero is in love with, even though he's NEVER MET HER BEFORE!) heals him miraculously and then....they start having wild sex. Seriously, that's how the book starts. Can you say "bodice ripper"?
Maybe that draws some readers in, but all it does for me is to tick me off! If I wanted this kind of story (which I don't), I'd go to the "back room" of a video store! I mean, don't bother with true love or even having the character know each other. Just have them going at it like a couple of animals in heat. Ick! If I didn't have another of this author's books on my "to be read" bookshelf, I wouldn't even bother trying her again. Skip this one.

Meh.....,
By A Customer
This review is from: Falcon and the Sword (Paperback)
I agree with the other negative reviews - a bit too much sugar and cheese. I had to push myself to keep reading the book. 1/2 way through I started skipping like mad just to see how it ended. Horribly predictable and fluff character depth. Sad...I really liked Lady and the Wolf. This one didn't cut it.

Insipid,
By A Customer
This review is from: Falcon and the Sword (Paperback)
I have read a few of Julie Beard's book before and really enjoyed them. This was not her best effort. The heroine was to weird to empathize with...and there were too many strange sub-plots. I liked the hero's brother more than I did him. I finished this book grudgingly, though it was hardly worth the effort.
