This reads like literature so I‘ll just come out and say it... R. Scott Baker‘s prose is quite excellent. There‘s very enjoyable moments of introspection, history, and intrigue, characters are always trying and work out the political machinations of their opponents. It‘s a political novel, in that politics of the holy war, history and magic are always on the agenda. This could be seen as rather dense reading, I would consider it enjoyably thinky.

Drinking Fullers - London Porter on Cask and just started reading this book. My husband gave it to me last Christmas and now I have finally gotten around to read it. #booksandbeers #tbrpile

My view has somewhat changed from yesterday. Definitely a reason to stay inside and read.
