on Feb. 11, 2010 :
I was nicely surprised by how much I liked this book. While I have read lots of other historical fiction, I must admit I have not read much in the medieval time period. I guess I have always thought of it as the "Dark ages" and not as adventurous as more modern times. This book made me realize how wrong I was. I found it an exciting read. The characters are well developed and it was refreshing to read about a believable hero instead of the over used anti-hero. The prose of the book stands out and helped immerses me in the story. The love story throughout the book is what really hooked me. Of course, I was thinking of asking my girlfriend to marry me at the time so maybe I was just in a romantic mood. This book is an excellent value and a must read if you like historical fiction.
