There were times in the novel where I wasn't quite sure whether Fouche would come out as a villain or as a hero - even knowing that there was a guest post coming to the HFBRT entitled "Fouche: The Perfect Villain". I kept hoping that he would emerge the hero and help Roch out a bit! I guess that's what makes for such a perfect villain; he is tricky enough to make us keep guessing.Allie ~ Hist-Fic Chickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01146943476204000055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-10269136842621502792010-06-24T01:20:48.642-04:002010-06-24T01:20:48.642-04:00Thank you for an interesting post.

Fouche was truly an unsavory individual adept at taking advantage of every opportunity to further himself. I look forward to reading this book.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-8611687214083382422010-06-23T20:12:49.455-04:002010-06-23T20:12:49.455-04:00Many thanks!

Most would expect Bonaparte to be the evil protagonist, but there were much worse things going on behind the scenes that the First Consul didn't know about (or chose to ignore). I also enjoyed the Author's Note -- it tied things up nicely.Arleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16283692274748044642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-81071811319943216142010-06-22T11:28:00.177-04:002010-06-22T11:28:00.177-04:00Great guest post!

I also loved the way all other characters came through- wonderful story:)Lucy https://www.blogger.com/profile/13600064401395449845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5339009608152299571.post-11512296438128162142010-06-21T20:39:42.160-04:002010-06-21T20:39:42.160-04:00Great Guest post, Catherine.
