At the same time, there is a sense that life, as it always does, goes on.The twelfth and last book of the Poldark series, Bella Poldark is a fitting and satisfying end to a saga that has spanned several decades and multiple generations of the Poldarks of Cornwall. Centers on the real-life story of the flamboyant and visionary American founder of Selfridge's, London's department store. When we went to Toronto I bought all the books with the Masterpiece Theatre covers. They eventually marry after Dwight's rescue from a prison camp in France.

There are more Winston Graham novels, set later, so the makers haven’t ruled out a return, but this could be in years to come.

It was a rousing good time throughout. SPOILER QUESTION I need to get opinions on!! I just felt too invested in this family to want them to suffer another loss.) Between her betrothal to George and the wedding, Ross pays her a visit and rapes her. Will a Poldark mine ever turn a profit? At the same time, there is a sense that life, as it always does, goes on.I am a die hard fan of the Poldark Novels, indeed, of everything Winston Graham wrote. But no time had passed. Three different, yet equally relentless women vie for the throne in 15th-century England. Was this review helpful to you? Ross Poldark returns to England after fighting in the American Revolution. I’m hoping for great things. And unecessary too.I am a die hard fan of the Poldark Novels, indeed, of everything Winston Graham wrote. His books have been widely translated and the Poldark series has been developed into two television series, shown in 22 countries. Still a fairly enjoyable reads, but I guess I expected the last novel to wow me and this jI thought this was the weakest of the Poldark novels, and definitely a disappointing finale.

The two cousins were friends as boys but their relationship is tested severely when Francis marries Elizabeth, with lasting repercussions for them all. If real life hadn't dared to interfere I probably would've finished long before now. I like no loose ends, normally. I noticed one actual mistake (not typos but a character error) but that's not bad for a series that took 57 years to complete. With Aidan Turner, Eleanor Tomlinson, Jack Farthing, Beatie Edney. I didn't always give a 5 star to all the books as I found some more compelling than others. He becomes involved with a young miner's wife with tragic results.

I love the whole series so much and I can't believe it took watching the new BBC series to start reading the books!

Historical setting. Packed with story lines all its own, it still manages to tie up all the central characters and give one a sense that things have come to a completion.
