Book Reviews of Quincunx
Book Review: A Dickensian Delight
Summary: 5 Stars
It took we three weeks to get past the first seventy pages, but once I did I couldn't put it down. The plot is as twisted as the quincunx knot pictured on the cover. It is not for the faint of heart or those who want the predigested pablum of modern publishing. If you persevere you will be rewarded with a wondrous reading experience.
