Product Description

From Publishers Weekly

In this 11th and concluding novel of the Poldark saga--a bestseller in England--Graham once again follows the fortunes of the Cornwall family. Series readers will not be surprised at the the centrality here of Ross Poldark and his wife, Demelza, who have matured from youthful emotional turbulence to become people of substance. His American war experience behind him, Ross is now a titled MP, called to England's secret service on the Continent during the Napoleonic wars. The Poldark children are also involved in the war, with tragic consequences. Old feuds and frustrated romances shadow the domestic scene, as Ross undertakes the role of patriarch, reflecting on the three decades that have elapsed since his meeting in 1783 with the incomparable Demelza. With customary grace, Graham handles a busy story, deftly conveying a stormy period in England and France while managing to provide helpful recaps of prior Poldark history.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Twisted Sword, Aug 7 2009

By	Geordie "Geo" (Ontario, Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Twisted Sword: A Novel of Cornwall 1815 (Paperback)

This novel is part of the Poldark Series and it is late in the series. I recommend that you start at the first novel. You can find the order of the 12 novels on-line. If you enjoy sagas that are full of rich characters that come to life, you will enjoy this series. Winston Graham was a gifted novelist and was recognized by the Queen of England. Reading the Poldark Series is a highlight on my long reading list.
