Fantastic read, fast pace and full of wonderful historical and cultural facts I knew nothing about! Love it when you learn something new :) A sequel would be fantastic so I will definitely be watching this author for any new books.
I have promoted this title among my friends in Facebook reading groups.

Thanks to Net Galley and the publisher for providing me with an ARC of this book!

The historical details of “Son of a Jacobite” are interesting and sound and it will doubtless find willing readers among fans of works like Outlander and Into the Wilderness. While history and male perspective work well for this title, it is somewhat weakened by repetitive sentence structure and weak dialogue. The use of dialect detracts from the work rather than adding from it. The journey from old country to new is interesting. A solid if unremarkable read.
