Chimes of a Lost Cathedral


by Janet Fitch


This book is the sequel to The Revolution of Marina M.   Here's the link to my review .  As always, it's difficult to speak about a series without giving away key story lines.  As with the first book, I learned so much about events surrounding the Russian revolution and civil war.  There is one chapter in this book that made me cry so hard.  Big ugly tears.  It was a complete surprise and has haunted me ever since.  I'm someone who re-writes books inside my head so different outcomes can be considered.  While I highly recommend both books, I suggest having tissues available for Chimes of a Lost Cathedral.
