This book took me a while to read, but not as long as it may seem from the dates. I finished it a while back.
It's kind of an adventure book, with bad guys and good guys, though most of the characters, with the exception of women, are fairly well-rounded. The women, of course, are perfect, unless their ugly, in which case they of course cannot be perfect. It is set in the middle ages, so I guess this attitude is appropriate. I guess it could easily be adapted into a movie. hehehe.
