5.0étoiles sur 5 Great Gothic Romance, Mai 27 2004
Par Un client
The Love Knot is a wonderful old-fashioned romance! Brandewyne has taken the typical Gothic plot made popular by the Brontes, du Maurier, Holt, Stewart, Whitney, and others (young woman goes to isolated house and falls in love with her dark, brooding employer, who may or may not be a bad guy), and added several different twists. All the Gothic elements so essential to the genre are in place here, and the action is nonstop. It kept me riveted right to the end of the book! The Love Knot is written in the classic mode, so some readers may find the going hard. But it suited the time period and style of the book, so I really enjoyed it. It set the Gothic mood perfectly, with such vivid descriptions that I could really see Cornwall, Bodmin Moor, Jamaica Inn, St. Aubyn Manor, and all the rest. The characters were delightful and true to the times and customs of the day. If you're after male prostitutes and graphic sex (someone else mentioned Robin Schone), The Love Knot isn't that. It's true to the classic Gothic mode. Maybe today's readers just aren't all that familiar with that style anymore. But I am, and to me, The Love Knot was refreshing, harkening back to books I read and adored in days gone by. For those of us who grew up with these types of books and really miss them, The Love Knot is a great read. I highly recommend it!

1.0étoiles sur 5 Horrible, Avril 12 2004
Par Ferocity "Ferocity" (Baltimore, MD USA) - Voir tous mes commentaires
I've never before been moved to write an online review, but after drudging through the muck of this book, I had to act.
The plot was lifted, practically wholecloth, from Bronte's Jane Eyre.
The only parts that didn't jibe with Jane Eyre were the parts lifted from du Maurier's Rebecca.
As for the bit about the hero working as a bandit for the Home Office, perhaps that was just a bit of Pimpernel worked in for effect.
Awful.

1.0étoiles sur 5 More like a noose than a knot, Janv. 16 2004
Par Gail (San Diego) - Voir tous mes commentaires
With paragraphs two sentences long that take up half the page, you can only imagine the boredom that strikes the reader. The descriptions goes on and on, ad nauseum, and the characters are trite. If the author was trying for gothic romance, she ended up only in leaving the reader aghast in horror.
I'd rather read Daphne Du Maurier or one of the Bronte's than wade through the dull prose of Ms. Brandewyne.
Safe yourself and don't bother with this book. 0 stars.
