 Sorry,cannot finish this! August 15, 2008

Sorry,I cannot carry on with this book! I almost never abandon a book,but have struggled for several nights and life is too short to waste time on it! Story was intriguing at first,but it is so badly written and cliche-ridden,the silly Americanisms(for the U.S.market,I assume)became unbearable,and with some relief I have popped it into the charity shop bag.
 WOW fantastic read August 13, 2008

I really enjoyed her first novel so was looking forward to reading Sepulchre - and it did not let me down. Kate Mosse is a very clever writer and the story flowed really well. It had me gripped from page to page and although as the story progressed you could almost guess how it would end it really didn't disappoint. I cannot wait for her next novel
 Couldn't even finish it. August 3, 2008

I'm a wide reader and read from the classics to what his deemed as "trashy reading" however no matter what I am reading I have never been unable to finish a book before.
I loved Labyrinth and it is rated as one of my favourite books so I bought this book eagerly however,I found it impossible to get in to,the americanisms annoyed me,I didn't feel anything for the characters and in general I just disliked the book.It is a shame as its plot is so deceivingly interesting.
A bit too supernatural for my taste August 2, 2008
The story of two lives that are intertwined:
Leonie Vernier is a Parisian teenager who travels with her brother to a country house in the French Pyrenees in 1891. She does not realize that her brother and her aunt share a secret and that her brother is on the run for a man so evil that nobody dares to stand up against him.
Meredith Martin is an American who writes a biography of Claude Debussy. Her trip to Eurote brings her to the French Pyrenees where she hopes to find an answer to questions about her family.
Crucial roles in the book are played by a set of Tarot cards, a ruined Visigoth sepulchre and unconditional love.
Even though the book gives a nice description of upper-class French day-to-day live at the end of the 19th century and makes fun of the stories in the Da Vinci code and some other books that all hype up the region of Carcasonne for hidden treasures and connections to biblical figures, there is a lot of supernatural mumbo-jumbo in this book. It was an anjoyable book for a holiday, but not one that I will remember for a long time.
don't be put off !! July 31, 2008

this was easy a 5 star book i tried to find a little few faults but it was just being picky !! sepulchre was one of them books that takes your imagination to somewhere else the characters were so real and the setting of the de la cade was so good i was gutted to find out it didn't exist ! i miss it already just read it !
