This is the first book i have read from Catherine Coulter. I have read many good historical romance books, i was quite skeptical about this one. However, i was quite surprised as the plot was fresh and the story was actually, quite romantic. This book is unlike any other which u have read. From this book, i have gotten double dose of the romance, which involves 2 couples and you would come to love the 4 characters - even it might seem a bit too much for a romance book, as most only concentrate on 1 couple. You can expect some funny dialogues, some magic, and romance - what could have been better than to join magic and romance together? I would recommend that anyone who read it, should pay close attention, or find themselves getting lost in the dialogue or the story being messy. During the first "time shift" in the book, i was lost, but when the second "time shift" happened, i was quick to adjust to it. If you can get the story, it should be one of the best of her books. The book is indeed addictive, and certainly gets me going with another book of her's!

I like this book even though the writing was sub-par. The characters are quite funny but a person must pay close attention while reading it or they may get lost. The story is a bit choppy but the characters are quite likable even the obnoxiously conceited wizard prince. Proofreading should have been better done, but I am glad I read it. Maybe because I like tales of magic and happy endings.

The Penwyth Curse by Catherine Coulter Reviewer: Pamela Ackerson (author Home of the Braves trilogy) Now this is more like it. This book is what I expect from Catherine Coulter. The Penwyth Curse is, in my humble opinion, one of her best. It is a book you can grab on to and not let go until it is finished. This is a medieval, historical, double romance, time-travel, mystery and intrigue type book. It is great. It is chock full of everything and worth every turn of the page. Ms Coulter delivers!
