The Porter's Wife

(Author)
Book Review
By Michael Beas
Historical Fiction at its very finest!
Author Lisa Brown has done an astounding job with
this fantastic tale that has captured my heart and imagination. While there are
many words that can define this novel one in particular stands out amongst the
rest: Gripping!
How can one write a review on such an amazing story
that will engulf the mind and imagination well into the late night hours? In
this story you will embark on a great number of adventures that will simply
take your breath away. A voyage aboard a steamship across the Atlantic Ocean
dating back to the early 1900’s is just one of the many treats that will sweep
you away. Main Character, Sarah Berry was developed
perfectly in an easy to relate, easy to follow manner that is
multi-dimensional, not an easy task to accomplish as an Author.
While I have never been to Manchester,
England I felt as if I was walking down the streets in the early 1900’s
watching the flames of the dancing candles lick the glass off of the oil lamps
hanging by the windows. The characters are bold and strong, the world Brown has
created for the reader is extremely descriptive and places you in the heart of
the story. The plot theme is original and unique.
Words to describe this book are: Emotional,
Realistic, Inspiring, and Descriptive in a well-written manner. Wait I have
more: Fear, Doubt, Sorrow, and Regret will enthrall this
senses in an epic way that will have you thinking about this book well after
you are done reading. If you are a fan of Ken Follett then you will love this “The
Porter Wife.” What can I say other then I have become a fan of Author Lisa
Brown and can’t wait to read more of her works.
5 Stars and wish there was more to pass out.
