Ok, so I don't know how to adequately tell you how much I love this book.
I won't give you a synopsis since amazon has done a great job of that already. I will tell you that Lymond is the greatest anti-hero I have ever encountered. He is a polyglot, an expert swordsman, brilliant, conniving, some might say treacherous, crazy? He is perfect in his imperfections. And to top it off the author likes to throw out random Latin and french quotes that leave you wondering "hmmmmmm???". But it is so so so great. I loved every moment. Tim is now embarking on the journey and seems to like it as much as I did, if that helps convince you. Go out and get it today. I am off to the library to get the second book in the series, Queen's play, I'll keep you posted.
In case anyone is wondering I am still reading Middlemarch and I'm about half way through, just needed a little break.

Mike is reading it too. I tease him about his "romance" b/c the cover with the castle looks like a romance novel.
