From Publishers Weekly

The doyenne of popular women's fiction (Just Rewards) returns with the first installment of a projected trilogy centering on internecine power struggles within the early 20th century incarnation of the centuries-old Deravenel clan and their London-based family business. A suspicious hotel fire causes the death of patriarch Richard Deravenel along with that of one of his sons, his brother-in-law and his young nephew, forcing tall, handsome, bright, seductive, 17-year old Edward Deravenel out of Oxford into the world of commerce. He and cousin Neville Watkins (a successful businessman in his own right) plot to avenge their fathers' and brothers' deaths and seize the company, currently under the stewardship of a delusional absentee executive whose ambitious (and French) wife is behind the skullduggery. Edward's longtime friend, Will Hasling, also joins the fray, and Neville has his own motivations. Along the way, there are libidinous liaisons, wicked plots, personal catastrophes, a secret "love child" and lessons aplenty about the consequences of ruthless ambition. Expect strong, two-dimensional characters; tasteful and adroit sex; repetitive exchanges; a plot rich with period detail and reasonably backed-up friction. (Jan.)

From AudioFile

Ric Jerrom offers a rousing performance of bestselling author Barbara Taylor Bradford's recent romantic family saga, set in early-nineteenth-century England--the first of a projected trilogy. When Richard Deravenel, head of the family business, is killed in a suspicious fire, his 17-year-old son, Edward, joins with his cousin, Neville, to assume leadership and avenge his father's death. All kinds of complications ensue. Jerrom handles this fine abridgment beautifully. His elegant, warm voice shades character well. And his crisp, lively narration glosses over the author's use of long expository paragraphs to explain the plot. This is sure to delight Bradford's legions of fans.

4.0étoiles sur 5 edwardian romance and intrigue finely narrated, Janv. 14 2007
Par Gail Cooke (TX, USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

For a woman who began her professional career in the typing pool of England's Yorkshire Evening Post, Barbara Taylor Bradford has come a long, long way. Her first novel, A Woman Of Substance (1979), as much of the world knows, almost instantly rose to the top of the lists. Following in short order were 20 more novels. Using the appellation "bestselling author" in regard to Ms. Bradford is not a publicist's hype - there are some 76 million copies of her books in print. She's a wonder.
Now, she offers her 22nd novel, The Ravenscar Dynasty, another intriguing family saga which is the first in a planned trilogy. She has set it in one of the most exciting time periods - turn of the century England. Thus, as is often the case, her tale is rich in period detail penned so precisely that colors and shapes seem to leap off the pages.
Hero Edward Deravanel is a young man, in his late teens, who seemingly had little interest in the business world,. However, his life changes when his father, brother, uncle, and cousin are killed in a fire and he finds himself thrust into the world of commerce. Was the fire an accident? He hardly thinks so. The blaze has taken virtually his entire family.
There is a fortune at stake. Edward and his cousin, Neville Watkins, determine to find the truth. Not only that but to secure total control of the family's corporate empire.
With a Barbara Taylor Bradford novel it's not necessary to add that there's romance aplenty, a mentally challenged villain wed to a conniving, greedy lass, plus a multitude of devious schemes when money and power are the rewards.
Actor Ric Jerrom is a multi-faceted performer who has spent three decades with Interactive Theatre throughout the world. He has 30 audio plays to his credit as well as the same number of audiobooks read for BBC. A perfect voice to narrate the ups and downs of life in the Edwardian Era, he does so with panache and arresting nuance.
