- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5It is now the winter of 1474 and Nicholas de Fluery is still married to Gelis. While they are still somewhat estranged they still partner to raise their son, Jordan. Their biggest problem is Nicholas keeps wracking up the enemies, making it difficult to protect his wife and son. He's off in Poland questioning his next moves while Gelis is digging up the dirt on Nicholas's past. Does this new information hurt or help her marriage?In this particular installment of the House of Nicollo series, puzzles are the underlying theme. I have to admit, I am getting a little sick of Nicholas. He has switched allegiances so many times even his friends do not trust him. His relationship with women is getting tiresome as well. The good news is that someone within his circle betrays him badly enough that it leads to the reconciliation with Gelis. By the end of Caprice and Rondo they have joined forces to support one another.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I find that the 7th book in the House of Niccolo is as wonderful and exciting as the first. When I finish the 8th book, Gemini, I know I will feel as though I have lost a friend and a witty companion. Most books have one highlight, climax, etc., while this series has many mini-climaxes and one huge one near the end. Almost like making love.
