5.0 out of 5 stars To the reader from Berwyn, PA - letter dated May 1,1999, May 26, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Surrender (Florida Civil War) (Paperback)

In answer to your question, NO, there is not a novel in between 'Captive and Rebel'. But these are novels of the McKenzie saga in order: 1. Runaway (Jarrett and Tara); 2. Captive (James and Tela); 3. Rebel (Ian McKenzie - Jarrett and Tara's son); 4. Surrender (Jerome McKenzie - James and Teela's son); 5. Glory (Julie McKenzie - Ian's brother).

If you enjoy reading Civil War Sagas, here is another Civil War saga by Graham, but in order to fully understand the saga of the Cameron's, you must first begin with the Cameron colonist, Jasmine and James Cameron: 1. Sweet Savage Eden (Jasmine and James Cameron -early 1600s)EXCELLENT 2. A Pirate's Pleasure (Skye and Roc Cameron - early 1700s) 3. Love Not a Rebel (Amanda and Eric Cameron - 1776)

1. One Wore Blue (Jesse and Cameron) 2. One Wore Gray (Daniel Cameron) 3. One Rode West (Christa Cameron) ALL THREE ARE EXCELLENT

Happy reading

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent!, February 3, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Surrender (Florida Civil War) (Paperback)

Passionate and thrilling to the last page. Heather has again thrilled her readers with another saga of the McKenzies' of Florida. Jerome is a dashing, not to mention gorgeous, Confederate sea captain constantly thwarting the Yankees by superbly running their coastal blockage. Risa, a 'military brat', is strong-willed, courageous but yet compassionate. Risa becomes entangled in secret covert operations by trying to assist her friend and one time rival, Alaina McKenzie. Therefore, she is captured,by Captain Jerome McKenzie, and held hostage to prevent delivering the information she has knowledge of. Typical! Yes, unless the writer is Heather Graham. Knowone can keep you in suspense and constantly weave a passionate veil like Heather. This will become one of your favorites, along with 'Sweet Savage Eden', 'One Wore Gray', and 'One Rode West'. I understand that Heather is currently working on the final saga of the McKenzies, this time the heroine being Jerome's younger sister. Can Ms. Graham deliver a novel more passionate and thrilling than 'Surrender', well, we'll just have to patiently wait and read other Heather Graham/aka Shannon Drake novels!

5.0 out of 5 stars Loved it!, August 2, 2003

K. Wrenbeck "kathywrenbeck" (Belleville, MI United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Surrender (Florida Civil War) (Paperback)

I've read this book--as well as the rest of the McKenzie saga--about four times now. Surrender is the next perfect continuation of the story. I love how Graham doesn't forget her previous characters and weaves them into each story she writes. I fell in love with Ian in Rebel, but fell more in love with Jerome. His fire and passion burn right through the pages.

I think the story could have been better had there been more interaction between Risa and Jerome. It seems they spend more time apart than they do together. And the times they do spend together, they are working against each other rather than making amends.

All in all, however, this is a wonderful story and quite a page turner.

I have read Captive and Runaway. I have Rebel but there seems to be a book missing because Runaway ended in the 1930s as did Captive. Rebel seems to start in the 1860s. Read more
