Review of 'The master puppeteer' on 'Goodreads'

5 stars

This book is a great historical fiction book in that it has a believable setting in the past and a believable plot that draws the reader into the book.

It was enjoyable to read and had excellent character development.

I would recommend this book to readers of many ages, including adults, as it is not dull or childish to read.
