Free (nook/Kindle/ADE-ePub/PDF) Through A Glass Darkly [Historical Drama w/ Romance]
Through A Glass Darkly by Karleen Koen is an historical family drama with strong romantic elements which may not actually be a dedicated historical romance because of how some relationship plot points turn out, according to reviews I read when I was thinking of getting this when it was on sale for $2.99 several months ago.
I ultimately passed, because the price was a bit too high for a plot that seemed still too romance-y for my tastes from an unknown-to-me author, so I'm pleased to see this is now free courtesy of publisher Sourcebooks, who are reprinting it from its original 1986 Random House edition. Currently free @ B&N as their Free Fridays book and Amazon (available to Canadians) and directly from the publisher in ADE-ePub/PDF (US & territorial addresses only). You can read author Koen's own recommendation for a book she enjoyed over at B&N's blog feature for the Free Friday. Description Sourcebooks Landmark proudly reintroduces this classic historical novel. Karleen Koen's sweeping saga contains unforgettable characters consumed with passion: the extraordinarily beautiful fifteen-year-old noblewoman, Barbara Alderley; the man she adores, the wickedly handsome Roger MontGeoffry; her grandmother, the duchess, who rules the family with cunning and wit; and her mother, the ineffably cruel, self-centered and licentious Diana. Like no other work, Through a Glass Darkly is infused with intrigue, sweetened by romance and awash in the black ink of betrayal. |
