Frost Fair has had another nice review from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
elisa_rolle. She likes the way I've used non-titled (and indeed mostly common) characters and used the gulf of class as well as sexual preference. Gideon - as a woman - would have been as difficult to woo for Redfern, as it is as a man, for example.
Here's a snippet.
The historical details are obviously very accurate, you can always picture the nineteen century London in which is set the story, and I bet that you can still follow the steps of Gideon around the city still now and seeing the same view he saw. The nice description of the Frost Fair, an impromptu fair held on the frozen Thames, is the same you can see in some prints of the time. I'm not an expert, but I believe that also the details on the gay underworld of that age (where one can find sex, more or less dangerous, more or less expensive) are well researched
Don't forget my Trick or Treat competition closes tomorrow!
