Loved the characters and the setting. My favourite character just has to be Lizbet – what a woman – you can’t help but like this cheeky and loud young woman who seems to be afraid of nothing. Trust me, Lizbet will make you smile. Women in the 16th Century were extremely oppressed with very few rights and I think she has been purposefully included as a way to get around this, as a modern reader we would have extreme difficulty in dealing with the way women were actually treated and spoken to, so a little fiction is not a bad thing.
