The FitzOsbornes in Exile has the same eccentric and lovable characters and humorous narrative as its prequel, but it is a bit more serious than A Brief History of Montmaray. Sophie and her family now know the danger of politics and the evil that the Germans are capable of, even before the rest of Europe fully realizes it. But that doesn't deter them from their goals, or cause them to lose their sense of humor. Sophie's account of their time spent in England, stretched out over two years in this deliciously thick book, is full of witty observations and social misadventures as well as more serious matters. Veronica is politically active, which gains her a reputation, enemies, and an assassination attempt. Toby is unwilling to study and learn what it takes to be a good king. The FitzOsbornes must figure out what they need to do with Simon, and Henry tests her governesses (and Aunt Charlotte) to their limits. There is also a great deal of politics in the novel, which may be a little confusing at first to the reader without any knowledge of the causes of World War II, but Cooper handles it well and keeps the confusion to a minimum while doing an excellent job at educating her readers about the political tensions in Europe, the Spanish Civil War, and other important events. For those readers who enjoyed the action of the prequel, there are a few good heart-pounding moments throughout the book, and a tense, dangerous, but ultimately triumphant ending. Cooper leaves the characters at a good place, but will have readers begging for the inevitable sequel. The FitzOsbornes in Exile is a quirky, charming, insightful, and poignant book, and Sophie is a smart, plucky heroine whose coming-of-age is a delight to read about.
