while his stories are a little formulaic, this guy can write. i got introduced to him bc "The Archer's Tale" had a cool cover graphic or something real substantial like that. ended up flying through that book and the rest of the series - then most of his other books. its excellent plane ride material. i also like that you pick up a little history in addition to a good story. lots of good trivia in them
- st. guinefort? who'd have thunk there was a dog that's a saint?
- the longbow? talk about a badass, under appreciated weapon... mildly depressed you need to get on that thing as a 4 year old to make any use of it...
