PositiveMagic of HistoryIt is long and somewhat heart-rending ... Still, the author sums up the book well, with Langoureth having a vision of the bloody future England has yet to experience. One reviewer criticized some of the cliched characters: everyone who is good is slender and beautiful, and those who are bad are overweight and ugly. I suppose there’s some merit to that criticism. But it’s still a good tale, if you like this kind of book. Another thing I liked is that the author did not paint Christianity as terrible across the board. But there is still the cliched evil priest, only this time he’s a monk. But the author can make some improvements in the second and third books and I think I will read them.
