דרמה, מתח, רומנים, בגידות, רצח, היסטוריה, מה אין פה. כתוב ביד אמן. קצת קשה לקרוא אבל מתרגלים, ובהחלט שווה את המאמץ.

Interesting but a bit pompous (because the author was trying to mimic the lofty tones of the Prophets and Psalms) and overplotted- there were so many villianous characters that i had difficulty remembering how they were related.
