Following the lives of Alis and Anseiu from their marriage at the age of 14 and 16 respectively through their old age during the middle ages in France. This is also during the time of the second and third Crusade. Sometimes interesting sometimes just a slog-fest of infidelity and jealousy. I think I would have liked this more if the characters had been more sympathetic and less fallible.

Although this was highly interesting and well-written, the author didn't talked about the characters' emotions enough for my taste, hence a writing that stayed cold and distant.
I definitly want to read the second book though.
