My Review:
I received a free copy of this book for an honest review.
I enjoy historical fiction, and I haven’t read much of it recently, so I was happy to read and review this book. I, James is the second book in The Eternity Series but it definitely stands on its own.
I, James starts with the birth of James and Isabel who are born at the same time but in different countries. They are both privileged until the age of 11 when they’re each torn from their families. They separately endure hardship and adventure before they meet. Their adventures continue after they meet until they settle down.
It took me a couple chapters to get used to Mike Hartner’s writing style but after that it was easy to follow. The descriptions were detailed enough to give a good visualization but not so detailed that my mind wandered. I did feel like the end was pretty rushed, and there wasn’t time to get to know the children, but I definitely recommend I, James to anyone who likes historical fiction. I look forward to reading future novels in the series.
