The latest book in the Bregdan Chronicles series was as entertaining as the prior books. Ms. Dye sometimes has a tendency to revert to long, explanatory dialogs that just don't ring credible to me, and this book had a lot of that. The characters continue to be well-drawn, and the story is interesting. I am a fan of historical fiction, and writing it has been my hobby for a long time, so I appreciate the detail Ms. Dye provides, obviously the result of good research. ( )
