 Loved this book! September 20, 2007
This was my first book by Penny Vincenzi and I quite simply loved it. A bit slow at the beginning, but unputdownable further on. Read it, it's fabulous.
Yummy, yummy - deserves more stars! April 5, 2007

I so enjoyed devouring this book, yet again Penny Vincenzi has written a wonderful book, the pages just flew by! Having now read most of Penny Vincenzi's books, I think that this is a close favourite coming in just behind the Spoils of Times trilogy.
Like the Spoils of Time trilogy, Forbidden Places is also set at the time of World War Two and I think Penny V writes about that era so well it just brings it to life.
I totally agree with a previous reviewer who said that the back of the book doesn't do it justice, in fact it made it sound rather lame but believe me it isn't! A fantastic read for any bookworm - highly recommended.
 Very enjoyable, but not the best one April 3, 2007
I really enjoyed this and therefore didn't put it down much! Well worth the read but as another reviewer said quite a slow pace so not my favourite of all her books. I don't think I will re-read this one.
The Back of the book does not do it justice! September 2, 2002

Not having read any books by Penny Vincenzi, I was not sure witch one to get first. So I decided on Forbidden Places and I am glad that I did. This was great book. All of Ms. Vincenzi's characters are rich and engaging. Even though the 600+ pages, Ms. Vincenzi keeps the action going and does not let the reader get bored. If you have never read Penny Vincenzi, try Forbidden Places I know you won't be disappointed!
A 'can't-put-it-down' read! January 1, 2002

This is one of those books you simply can't put down once you've started. Fascinating story set in wartime England - so realistic, with wonderful insight into living at the time. Lots of twists. Only the end was disappointing.
