I was lucky enough to receive an early copy of the Sword of Sighs. I have read Greg James’ other works (under the name G.R. Yeates) and I can honestly say this is my favorite book of his so far. It’s about a girl who finds herself worlds away from her Florida home. Slavery, kidnapping, death and a bit of love (thrown in for kicks) await her in this new world.Sword of Sighs is very fast paced. Each chapter is packed with action and details that the reader could easily miss if not paying attention. At times I wish it would have slowed down so I could savor the moment. And like in all of James’ books the amount of detail goes beyond graphic into a realm that not many authors can reach.I just want to throw a bit of a personal thank you out there to the author. The book ends with closure but many unanswered questions. It makes me curious as to what comes next. He did not end it with a cliff hanger like so many indy authors like to do. That is one of my biggest pet peeves and I am thrilled that he has not followed in the footsteps as many before him.
