This is a great adventure story with the heroes being trapped in an unknown world when they venture past a forbidden barrier in their ship. Even though this is an older book, it did not seem dated to me, as have many of the older classics I have read. It has a blend of science fiction, adventure, romance, heroism, chivalry, and a strong female character.
A story of romantic love in Holland during the Renaissance, this historical novel describes the murder of John de Witte and his brother Cornelius under the hands of tyrants. And the black tulip? A symbol of justice and the end of oppression.
