Won this audiobook in a TSG giveaway, and it was so fun! As a non-historian, it felt true to the time period, with suitable scandals and adventures, but obviously not all of that is easy to read/listen to. Also, the treatment of indigenous people was, as expected, not good. Grace was a great heroine, and it was super easy to root for her and Seamus. The villains were marvelously villainous, and the sidekicks were well-defined and adorable. I definitely hope to get around to reading the rest of the series!
