When I received this book, I was surprised how short it was. In fact, I read it in just one evening. But don't let its length confound you! It is packed with reliable and historical information on the Templars. Not an ounce of fiction from this gifted historian - so we are left with "only the facts, mam." A+

I gave this book only 3 stars because it wasn't at all what I had thought. I found it by browsing the new books section and after seeing the cover and reading the short little quote on the inside front cover, I thought it would be a book I'd like. "In seventeenth-century Scotland, everyone knows the devil is real. Everyone knows that witches exist. Everyone knows that saying the wrong thing can get you hanged...." Then it goes on to say how Maggie Blair's grandmother is accused of witchcraft. The first page has Maggie's grandmother asking her about powers. Sounds like a good book to me. No. Well, no in that it was all a lie. The witchcraft thing took up the first, oh, 10 pages? Maggie and her grandmother are accused of witchcraft. Bad things happen. Then that's the end of the witchcraft. Maggie isn't really a witch. The rest of the book is more about religion and history (religious history) than anything else. And it took place in Scotland. Usually that's enough for me to like it. If you're interested in 17th century Scotland politics and religious troubles, read this. If you're looking for a good book with witches and a love interest, don't.
