Narration Toward Books Pan Wołodyjowski (The Trilogy #3)
Pan Wołodyjowski jest ostatnią powieścią Trylogii (pozostałe to Ogniem i mieczem i Potop). Akcja toczy się na Kresach podczas wojny polsko-tureckiej, za panowania Michała Wiśniowieckiego. Michał Wołodyjowski pojawiał się we wcześniejszych częściach cyklu, zyskując coraz bardziej na znaczeniu. Pisarz, tworząc swego bohatera, wzorował się na autentycznej osobie - podolskim rycerzu Jerzym Wołodyjowskim który zginął podczas obrony Kamieńca. Powieść Sienkiewicza wypełniają dzieje potyczek, pościgów, pojedynków i licznych romansów składających się na porywającą lekturę.Define Appertaining To Books Pan Wołodyjowski (The Trilogy #3)

Of the Trilogy this is my least favourite. It feels, to me, as though it is lacking a focus.Wonderful literature. The poles should be re-named The People of Job as they have suffered unawares for centuries while at the same time have defended western civilization with truly uncommon valor and integrity. The west owes a debt of thanks to these honorable people. It is crazy that they languished under the yoke communism after WWII and that we "blessed" it.
I read this book because my wife's grandpa is polish and he gave the trilogy to her uncle. It was a delight and amazing book about the history of one of the most important Christian countries in the world. This is the grand finale!
The standard for which all epic adventure books should be measured.
Bottom Line First:I did enjoy Pan Michael, but not as much as the earlier volumes in The Trilogy. Sienkiewicz is creative enough that you will rarely be that far ahead of the plot twists and never because you had no warning. Even if you do know what is coming, the details may not be what you expected. Having a warrior of a woman is a much needed relief from fainting, teary eyed motherly women that is every other female in the series. . The inclusion of a great warrior driven mad by the violence
I can't remember how I found this, but Polish history has been a soft spot for me for decades. I really liked reading it, especially the "supporting" characters.
I really wanted to love this book, but ultimately found it boring enough to not carry me through the whole thing. I don't say that about very many books.
