Review: A Comfortable Read
Rating: 4 out of 5

LIVING during a violent age when most had few rights and women needed the protection of men to survive, Ceridwen, a fifteen-year-old girl, manages to run away from the supervision of a prior, live in the open,  and find a female protector who instantly becomes her best friend.  And so it goes. Convincing period detail helps give credence to a tale which never taxes reality. I like smart, brave heroines, but I never quite believe Ceridwen. The writing works, and lots of period terms give atmosphere.
