From the #1 "New York Times" bestselling author of "The Other Boleyn Girl" comes the final book of the extraordinary "Wideacre "trilogy as the heir to the great estate comes home at last. Meridon knows she does not belong in the dirty, vagabond life of a gypsy bareback rider. The half-remembered vision of another life burns in her heart, even as her beloved sister, Dandy, risks everything for their future. Alone, Meridon follows the urgings of her dream, riding in the moonlight past the rusted gates, up the winding drive to a house--clutching the golden clasp of the necklace that was her birthright--home at last to Wideacre. The lost heir of one of England's great estates would take her place as its mistress... "Meridon" is a rich, impassioned tapestry of a young woman's journey from dreams to glittering drawing rooms and elaborate deceits, from a simple hope to a deep and fulfilling love. Set in the savage contrasts of Georgian England--a time alive with treachery, grandeur, and intrigue--"Meridon" is Philippa Gregory's masterwork.… (mehr)

The least incest-y and murder-y of the trilogy.

I didn't think the characters were as strong - Bea was terrible but compelling, Julia was insipid but entwined with the hateful Richard, while Merry was a bit meh by comparison.

This is the second book in the series. Meridon has her own issues with keeping her families land. She has to fight very hard and battle with the Queen of the land to hold on to what is hers ( )

Me llevo unos cuantos meses pero al fin termine la trilogía .

Este ultimo libro es perfecto .

Tardo pero , finalmente , la autora cerro la tres generaciones de mujeres : de la peor ,que fue Beatrice con su maldad y sus maquinaciones , y ese "amor" a su Harry digno de una Cersei Lannister; pasando por su hija Julia que dejo bastante que desear pero fue un progreso del terrible Wideacre ; para ,(Al Fin!) llegar a esta maravillosa Meridon y una historia comparable a esas que sufrieron grandes personajes literarios como Scarlett O'Hara y su Tara ; o Jack y su catedral en Los Pilares de la tierra .

Meridon es una novela imperdible sobre las raíces , sobre la familia esa que se hace y no se nace y , también ,sobre el amor romántico y su maduración al simplemente amor . A diferencia de los anteriores , este tiene un final feliz bien merecido ( )

This book was given to me by Xeyra. She was so generous ,she bought all 3 of the Wideacre series for me.
She bough them on Ebay but when I opened the package we discovered one book was missing.
Wideacre, book 1.

Now I treated myself and bought Wideacre last week in Scotland. What a great book.
I can't get enough and am reading book 2 The Favoured Child right now.

On Monday, January 08, 2007 I wrote:

This was the last book of the wideacre series and I was glad to learn that this book was a bit different than the first 2. (Otherwise I would have gotten bored).
No incest this time ;), and most of the story was not really involved around wideacre.

Good book!
Finished reading this at about January 5/6th of 2007

Meridon and her sister lead a gypsy life until they are sold by their father to become part of a trapeze and horse riding travelling show. It is here their fortunes change and meridon leaves for a life she only thought existed in her dreams.
I was not convinced of the reality of the plot but a light, entertaining, romantic read neverthe less. ( )
