Continuing . . .
Why should one read a book with so many historical mistakes? (IMHO) Here are VI good reasons to read it.
I. 76 LOLs!
It really is quite funny.
II. For the films referenced.
Alice in Wonderland -- Jaws -- The Lion King -- Monty Python and the Holy Grail -- Princess Bride -- The Shaggy Dog -- Tangled.
III. It may become a film sometime in the future.
IV. The writers do make an effort to try to understand the male point of view, and I can't say that about every female writer.
V. While the relationship between newly wed husband and wife may be historically suspect, there are newly wed couples out there who relate to each other like that.
VI. What it feels like to . . .
a. have people come for you in the middle of the night. Not good.
b. know that one day one will rule, and there is nothing one can do about it.
c. rule.
d. know that one has ruled--badly.
e. know that one will die or may die the next morn, either by execution or in battle.
f. know love for someone, and that that person loves you, too.
Thus, it is surprisingly well written.
Though, near perfect it is not perfect. Thus, what is wrong with it.
1st. The 2 two halves are not equal. The 1st half, the more historical half, is much stronger than the 2nd half.
2nd. There is a scene in the book that does not fit, adds nil to the book, and just stops the story dead.
3rd. The familial relationships in the book are so historically inaccurate, they just grate.
4th. The villains are also historically inaccurate, so they grate, too.
As for what's next: a book where the villains do no grate, but are great.

I seem to be one of a very few with a fondness for THE DUNGEONMASTER (AKA RAGEWAR).

I wonder if it could be something from Tales Of The Unexpected?
