This follows "Roanoke" which I really liked. In fact, it pretty much starts the minute "Roanoke" ends. It is mainly the story of Gilda & Fallon and what happens after the slaughter of their village.

Fallon is sent to England and Gilda is sent to live with her cousin Pocantas. Fallon never forgets his incomplete mission--to watch over Noshi & Gilda. Gilda, being so young when the children were sent away, doesn't remember much of her previous life. Eventually Fallon is able to go back to Virginia and begin his search for her.

The book is womderfully written and I felt like I got to know the main characters, to a point. Some of the supporting characters weren't that deep, but that's understandable.

I can't wait to read the third book in the series.

JAMESTOWN continues the story of the people who established Roanoke, as based upon the author's research. I was reminded of the biblical story of Job's suffering as I lived with the characters Gilda and Fallon. A wonderful, enriching tale. I can't wait to read the other books in this series!

This has to be one of the best series of books I've ever read. I hadn't even reached the middle of the first book when I called my mother to tell her that she had to go get it. She was done with it when I reached the middle of the second and now I've just finished the third!
