Customer Reviews

The Poldark books
After recently re-watching the tv series, decided to buy the books as had not read them. Also the tv series doesn't cover the last 4 boooks and was interested to know what happened. Winston Graham has managed to make the characters real for the reader,and you become so caught up in their lives. He places the fictional characters amongst the history of the times and makes it a very interesting read.
