4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. I was Swept Away into A Bygone Era Of The 1600's. By Frank Talaber Katherine's research and attention to detail had me, in the space of a few paragraphs, pulled into a world of England in the 1600's. I don't normally read historical novels, but once past the antiquated words and thoughts I was hooked.So much so I had to look for my musket. Jasper's father has died, somewhat suspiciously and as Jasper begins to realize after mysterious documents surface, did he know his dad at all? England is on the edge of war with the Dutchy, as they are called. Jasper to trying to teach religious theories in a time when the world around him cares little for it and more for going to war. Lies, deceit and walking a thin edge of becoming a shop owner all challenge Jasper into wondering is he being tormented into entering hell and not falling for madly in love with a beautiful Dutch woman. Who potentially could become the countries enemy. What is he to do? I won't tell, but suffice to say if you like historical novels, you'll love this one.
4 of 4 people found the following review helpful. Takes you into 1660's London By S. D. Cook Katherine Pym launches the reader into 1660's London, not only through her skill in recreating the sights and sounds of the city, but in the speech and thoughts of her characters - and I say this as someone who both grew up on the edge of London and studied the period in graduate school. Jasper's world, where politics, religion, society, and love are inextricably intertwined, may just have something to teach us about the times we live in, too. Especially recommended if you love the history in your historical novels, or enjoy books that don't always follow the same standard formula.

These are the things I enjoyed most in Katherine Pym’s Jasper’s Lament - intrigue By Amazon Customer These are the things I enjoyed most in Katherine Pym’s Jasper’s Lament - intrigue, both personal and political; Jasper himself, who is complex, down-to-earth, and by no means a prig, despite being of the Puritan persuasion; conflict between him and the seductress, Hester; the author’s impressive knowledge of the 1660’s; and historical detail that brings the era alive without intruding on the story.A quibble for me had to do with the introduction of a ghost into the action, but that is one individual’s opinion, and may actually be a plus to other readers.The story is built on secrets; personal ones, and secret plots. Jasper is in for quite a shock when he discovers that his rigidly Puritanical father was not all he appeared to be. Then Jasper falls for Placidia, a Dutch girl, and finds she may be involved in a plot against the Protestant King Charles. What to do? Expose her relatives, or face being accused of spying himself?An intriguing and original look into post-Cromwell Britain, a complex age made fascinating by the unresolved political, racial and religious conflicts in play at the time.
