This is a great book for anyone who loves books, mysteries, and medieval times.

I would not list this as one of my favorite books. I know people love it so it makes me sad taht I didn't. The main story line is engrossing (and why I did finish the book) but there was way too much "preachiness" and history that I felt detracted from the book not adding. I thought the book was just ok.
