"Bursts with action, encyclopedic in historic detail . . . supremely well crafted and a delight to read." -- Chicago Tribune   "A fascinating journey . . . a clear yet sparkling window upon history with a superb narrative, so perfectly balanced between history and fiction that it clears away the mists of time from antiquity, giving the reader the impression that events over a span of ten centuries occurred only yesterday." -- Fort Worth   Star-Telegram "Strong . . . appealing . . . I haven't read so satisfactory a saga in years . . . in fact, perhaps not ever before. . . .

Synopsis
A masterpiece of breathtaking scope--a brilliantly conceived epic novel that traces the entire turbulent course of English history This rich tapestry weaves a compelling saga of five families--the Wilsons, the Masons, the family of Porteus, the Shockleys, and the Godfreys--who reflect the changing character of Britain. As their fates and fortunes intertwine over the course of the centuries, their greater destinies offer a fascinating glimpse into the future. An absorbing historical chronicle, Sarum is a keen tale of struggle and adventure, a profound human drama, and a magnificent work of sheer storytelling.

    Item arrived promptly and was as exactly as described. Item was packaged extremely well. As someone who has bought a lot of books online only for them to arrived damaged, it was so refreshing to buy from a seller who actually cares about the condition the book arrives in. 10/10 seller would buy from again and would encourage you to do the same.

    The title of the book, "Sarum, the Novel of England" implies that everything one needs to know about the time in English history is in this book.

    I enjoy well written historical fiction books. I appreciate an author whose research is accurate but not obvious. Edward Rutherfurd's in-depth descriptions of the people, places, and things in his books are wonderful. I am going to quote a section of the summary of the novel that appears on the back of the book: "...this is a brilliantly conceived epic of a novel that traces the entire turbulent course of English history." I couldn't put the book down.
