About this product

Product Information

THE NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! "A sprawling escape into 18th century English nobility and one heck of an engaging romantic drama."--Newsweek One of the most beloved historical fiction novels of all time, Through a Glass Darkly presents a breathtaking, lush story of a young noblewoman as she explores the intriguing world of the noble class while building her life with the man she loves. Karleen Koen's sweeping saga introduces unforgettable characters consumed with passion: the extraordinarily beautiful fifteen-year-old noblewoman, Barbara Alderley; the man she adores, the wickedly handsome Roger MontGeoffry; her grandmother, the duchess, who rules the family with cunning and wit; and her mother, the ineffably cruel, self-centered and licentious Diana. Although her own romantic fairy tale seems to be coming true, Barbara has a lot to learn about the machinations of the royal courts, financial chaos, and surviving with her reputation intact. Like no other work, Through a Glass Darkly is infused with intrigue, sweetened by romance and awash in the black ink of betrayal. Full of elements that fans of Susanna Kearsley, Diana Gabaldon, and Phillipa Gregory will love: A rich, beautiful world you can escape to Characters with strong hearts and extraordinary depth Sumptuous, stunning historical detail Romance to sweep you up and carry you away Praise for Through a Glass Darkly: "[A] lavish, carefully researched portrait of a young woman's turbulent coming of age in 18th-century England and France."--People "Fast-paced and fun to read!"--Glamour "A brilliant historical novel, a lovely romance, a gripping character study--there's something for everyone."--Richmond Times-Dispatch

A++ seller! Great communication and customer service. Prompt delivery. Item was as described other than a listing error by eBay, not the seller who went above and beyond when it was not necessary or expected, to make up for it. The CD and case were as described and had no issues. I would definitely trust this seller and purchase from him/her again. So appreciative of the customer service. Thank you!

  • Throught the Glass Darkly

    One thing I love about Koen is that her novels don't seem to border on the impossible and the inane. The main characters encounter life as it really is which is, often without the predictable happy ending. I am a devotee of historical fiction and find Koen's writing interesting and educational. She offers a glimpse of life during the Restoration including the economic crisis that hit England at that time. I bought this book because I had read Dark Angels and this book is a sequel.

  • Love blinds us all

    This is a wonderful book that I couldn't put down. The main character is an innocent young girl who begins a life with blinders on, an innocence that is shattered piece by piece, through life's trials and tribulations. She finds that her man who she has put upon a pedestal crashes! This heroin shows us how much a person can truely take and still survive. I would highly recomend this book.
