The Midnight Watch: A Novel of the Titanic and the Californian
by David Dyer
Book Review: The Midnight Watch (4/13/2016)
I'm not really a fan of historical fiction as a genre in general. I do make exceptions, like I did for The Midnight Watch. Certain historical subjects appeal to me more than others and the entire Titanic debacle is fascinating to me.

I loved that David Dyer told the story from multiple view points. It made it less likely that you would get bored with a specific character.

I wasn't thrilled with some of the aspects that go along with most historical fiction novels, but that comes down to a personal preference.

I would recommend The Midnight Watch to anyone fascinated by the Titanic's story or even just lovers of historical fiction because it is very well written.
