4.0 out of 5 stars Good but not historically accurate, May 8 2004

By	Meg Lightbown "Livin la vida loca in Maine!" (Caribou, Maine) - See all my reviews

It was a really good book that I got deep into, but I must admit the historical perspective of the book was off in places. That did not take away from this gripping story. This was my first book I've read in this series, so it took me a while to understand the ins and outs of ths story. For people who may be reading this, I would recommend you read the other books in the series first so you don't encounter the same problem I did.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great book!, Feb 4 2003

By	A. Merritt (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Distant Beacon, The (Paperback)

While Anne settles in England, Nicole sets off to oversee her Uncle Charles's property in Massachusetts. Gordon Goodwin acts as her guide as she first visits her parents, then traverses towards Massachusetts. War and devastation lie in her way.
As Nicole travels, she wonders if she will ever truly find a home, and if she will ever find the right man's love.

Messages of courageous faith, forgiveness, and love are woven into this book. I won't give away the exciting twists and turns, but I will say that I loved this riveting and well-written book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Enthralling!, July 30 2002

By	C. Jurjevich "cp-68" (atmore, alabama United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Distant Beacon, The (Paperback)

I realized what a glorious text this was after I read thru it for the second time. The first time thru I got the impression that the storyline was somewhat scattered. But I was wrong. Thank you, Mrs. Oke and Mr. Bunn, for keeping the language and mannerisms true to the era and cultures portrayed in the books. Nothing is more disappointing and annoying than for the characters in the book to suddenly take on 20th century attitudes and conduct. A precious story...

3.0 out of 5 stars Good book, but not the best in the series
So far, I have enjoyed this series very much. However, I thought that book 3 was the best so far. This book is the story of Nicole, more than anyone else, trying to find her... Read more
