Time for pulp fiction and Casey snuggles. THE MAD KING‘s cover led me to expect pseudo-medieval fantasy, but it‘s actually a contemporary-to-publication adventure novel about a young American who is mistaken for the runaway king of his mother‘s European homeland. The first three chapters were fun.
Bookwomble I've had this on my tbr shelf for a couple of decades! From my memory of the blurb when I bought it, I think it's ERB's nod to the Ruritanian romances of Anthony Hope. Good to hear you're enjoying it - I'll try to bump it up my list!![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)

xicanti @Bookwomble I‘m almost halfway through now, and it‘s still good! If it were a novella, it‘d be at its natural end point, but there‘s still enough left that I expect lots of twists and exciting confrontations. 1w
