A satisfying conclusion
I became very involved with the protagonists of this trilogy in the course of reading the first and second books: The Crown in the Heather and Worth Dying For. Each character, from Robert the Bruce to his arch enemy, Edward the Second, began as strangers to me but with each chapter I read, with each book I opened, they were further polished, fleshed out and deepened until I could almost see them before me, see their expressions as well as I could dip into their hearts and minds. I fell a little in love with, or perhaps it was a kind of hero worship state, with James Douglas. In The Honor Due a King, James's story continues, as does Robert's, and the stories of the people that surround them. The Honor Due a King steps away from battles and delves far more deeply into the personal lives of our champions. This is a book of heart, mind, romance, tragedy and love. It's a triumphant, yet sad conclusion; by that I mean that when you become so connected to a story and its characters, you really don't want it to end.
