The Bronze Horseman – Book #2 – The Bridge to Holy Cross
0$4.99This edition is the original sequel to The Bronze Horseman. When the author decided to write a third book, she wrote Tatiana & Alexander as a sequel instead. The Bridge to Holy Cross has additional chapters from Alexander’s point of view including a short epilogue, which was initially included as the author didn’t believe that a third book would be released. When reading the books in order I would recommend sticking with the latest edition i.e. Tatiana & Alexander and when finished book 3 go back and read the missing content in this version as the epilogue contains spoilers for book 3.
