Customer Reviews of The Wild Hunt

This is the story of Judith and Guyon of Ravenstow & Ledworth. She was given into marriage with Guyon before even meeting him. Her image of marriage is not a pretty one. She imagines it to be like her mother's, full of violence. Her "father" is half-brother to the infamous Lord Robert de Belleme. Judith, for several months to a year is filled with distrust for her new husband, Guy, even though he has yet to exercise his "full martial rights." As time goes on, however, she learns to trust him in nearly everything.

However, there is a secret that even she does not suspect about herself, but others, including Guy, do. In addition, Guy suffers a personal tragedy and surprisingly Judith, is empathetic about it.

The characters in this novel are complex, compassionate, realistic human beings. The story is fast-paced and never dull. The details of what life must have been like during William Rufus' and Henry I's reign are wild, sometimes brutal, but always interesting. If you want to read a medieval book that does not disappoint, then this one is for you. Beware, however, the modicum of sex that does appear in this title is neither gratitious nor vulgar, it is appropriate to the storyline. It is out-of-print, but it can and should be found and read! Also, be sure to read the rest in this trilogy, "The Running Vixen," and "The Leopard Unleashed." "King of the Wood" is also an excellent novel by Valerie Anand that uses William Rufus' reign as a backdrop.

Great Book
I enjoyed this book, and i reccomend it to anyone that is fascinated by the middle ages. The story seems true to life (past) obviously!

An intelligent, well-researched medieval romance
Don't believe the Kirkus review. This is no light-weight, bouncy romance. It is a well researched historical novel, with two finely developed lead characters. Most medieval romances turn me off for being completely inaccurate. But not only is the medieval time period done well, the storyline is quite gripping. This author is so talented, I was actually afraid for the hero and heroine's safety when the castle was sieged. WILD HUNT is very much a cut above the ordinary, and it is one that will appeal to fans of intelligent romance fiction. Those who appreciate Laura Kinsale, Judith Ivory and Jo Beverley will be extremely pleased with WILD HUNT.
