The Marlowe Conspiracy (58 page)

"A delightful romp... Both Marlowe and Shakespeare are fully realized, very likable characters... Scarsbrook does a masterful job of describing an England on the verge of the seventeenth century."

-- Historical Novel Review

"A colorful tale that cleverly coordinates fact and rumor... The story could very well stand on its own, even without the historical tie-in, as a well-written piece of historical fiction."

-- Stimulated Outlet Book Reviews

"This story weaves historic details about the life of playwright Christopher "Kit" Marlowe and his contemporaries into a compelling tale of political intrigue."

-- Publishers Weekly

"A lively and entertaining adventure tale... most enjoyable."

--The Marlowe Society
