|date=September 2012
|summary=It has been a long wait for a follow up to "Restoration". Sir Robert Merivel remains as charismatic and lovable as ever - a Falstaff for the King Charles II era - balancing hope and sadness as the disasters keep coming. Character-driven historic fiction at its best.

Our grateful thanks to the kind people at Chatto & Windus for sending us this book.
Surely only [[Bring up the Bodies by Hilary Mantel]] can challenge this as the best historical fiction follow up for 2012. You might also enjoy [[John Saturnall's Feast by Lawrence Norfolk]].
