Reviews
"Superb. . . A searing portrait of a woman that resonates across the ages." -- "People"
"This is Gregory par excellence. A promising start to a family saga about ordinary people."-- "Kirkus Reviews"
"As with all good historical fiction, the novel offers that uncanny combination of distancing detail and themes that feel only too close to us today....Tidelands is a spellbinding read and an evocative glimpse at our strangely familiar past."-- "Independent (UK)"
"Richly detailed and brimming with secrets (personal and political), Tidelands is a captivating portrait of a brave woman and a compelling start to a new series."-- "Shelf Awareness"
"The author crafts her material with effortless ease. Her grasp of social mores is brilliant, the love story rings true and the research is, as ever, of the highest calibre."-- "Daily Mail (UK)"
"I adore the way Philippa Gregory tells a story. I especially love how she brings to life female characters and makes them queens in their own right, even if they are mere herbalists....What Gregory does so wonderfully, though, is make you see how unjust the world can be, especially for women of a particular time period."-- "Bookreporter"
