Review of 'Island Beneath the Sea' on 'Goodreads'

1 star

I have never disliked the cast of a book as much as the characters in Island Beneath the Sea. While it does give a good historical perspective of slavery in the colonies, the characters are all pretty one-dimensional and unlikeable. This is all just my opinion, but I have to say that I heaved a sigh of relief on finishing.
