Nancy C. (nancyzc) reviewed on 3/3/2008 + 84 more book reviews

Very well researched, and with few anachronisms to spoil the 12th-century ambience. Despite its great length (983 pages of small print), it doesn't feel a bit too long. Do not read this book if you expect complex characters or intellectual content, but DO read it if you love what the British call "ripping yarns." An excellent historical novel.
