Dear Reader

Welcome to BookCrossing and thanks for being a part of World Book Night 2011, the largest book giveaway in history. 1,000,000 specially printed copies of 25 different books changed hands on March 5th 2011 and began their journey from reader to reader. This book is one of them. World Book Night has joined with BookCrossing to help track these books as they travel. You can be a part of that journey by making a comment in the book's journal here on BookCrossing. Your journal entry can say how you got the book, what you thought of it, your plans for it or whatever else you might like to add.

On BookCrossing you may choose to remain anonymous or join (it's free). If you join, you’ll be alerted by e-mail each time someone makes another journal entry for this specific copy of this book (other copies of the book are travelling with their own ID number. Every copy of every book has a unique ID). It’s all confidential (you’re known only by your screen name and no one is ever given your e-mail address) and spam-free.

Thanks in advance for being part of World Book Night and BookCrossing. And happy reading and sharing.

This book is being released via BookCrossing on 5 March 2011 as part of the inaugural World Book Night. With the full support of the Publishers Association, the Booksellers Association, the Independent Publishers Guild, the Reading Agency with libraries, World Book Day and the BBC, one million books will be given away by an army of passionate readers to members of the public across the UK and Ireland.

Read and release!

I received this book in Dublin, Ireland, as part of World Book Night 2011.

Dear reader,
I do hope you enjoy this book. I am passing it on to you as part of World Book Night 2011. Please read the book and pass it on for someone else to enjoy. Share the love of reading!

Found at The Longstone Pub in Dublin. Thank you very much World book night and Leamhliom. World book night was a great event and I hope it happens again!

I have managed to find two copies of this book, so I am sending this book to Moriguen as part of the wishlist tag game.

Thank you for sending this book to me, KiwiinEngland! This is the first World Book Night Book I've ever had the pleasure of receiving. I think I will really enjoy the book, because I just loved Sansoms book Sovereign!

I liked this book, even though I wasn't as swept away by it as I was with Sovereign. The atmosphere in the monastary is so oppressive and that feeling kind of oozes of of the book and grabs you. Perhaps that is why I didn't like it as much. Some parts of the book were very exciting and unexpected, but some were a bit predictable for me.
Thanks for giving me the opportunity to read this book, KiwiinEngland. I'll make sure to find another reader for it!

I have given this book to an interested friend. She will be travelling to Indonesia soon and will read and release the book while on her travels!
