Bookclub Review


The year is 1794. The book takes you into a world filled with gypsies, the guillotine, a mysterious count, and a monstrous wolf. In the many dark passages beneath Paris, a darkness lurks with unimaginable power.

It is a stirring tale of magic and revolution. The author's words pull you into the world of the book, making you truly feel as if you are witnessing the French Revolution yourself.

When there is suspense in the book, you feel the suspense. When there is love, you feel the love. But throughout the whole story, you feel excitement, passion, and adventure.
