What readers say about Broken Chains
'You are holding in your hands Broken Chains by Emiliya Ahmadova. This book should be ranked as a pearl of world literature.'
'The harmonious interplay of conflicting episodes with external reality once again confirms the talent and skill of literary genius. Emiliya Ahmadova's ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿ is a fascinating read. Sometimes it reminds us of our lives. You can see yourself in it and use what you read as a guide.'
'Broken Chains is an awesome book. I love it. The plot is rich, unique and really gripping. I couldn't put it down until I finished reading the last chapters at 5 o'clock in the morning.' Author Christiane Agricola
'It raises sensitive questions that are not so often discussed.In the heart of this story is the important question: What does it take to live with a deep sense of inner freedom? Silvana is a compelling and well-developed character who will not only interest readers but will be a powerful example of a warrior for freedom and human rights.'Reviewed By Divine Zape for Readers' Favorite (5 stars)
'This is a profoundly moving story on many levels. The reader is invited into the characters lives to experience the charm of seduction, the ensuing romances, weddings and then the harshness reality brings once the veil and champagne flutes are put away.' Author Jeanette Skirvin
'Broken Chains is very inspiring. It is full of lessons and I believe it should be a compulsory text for young women starting out in life. Eyes that see the world through rose-tinted lenses might be opened, and be prepared for the darkness that lurks behind the most charming exteriors. A very worthy book.' Author Brian O'Hare
'There were several occasions that I had to put the book down and regroup because the writing is so real and intense.' Barbara Colvin
