So...300 down, 600 to go. Or not! Because this book, dare I say it, is just rather boring. The Cromwell of previous books was quick-witted and charming but this one has the whiff of pompous old fart about him. Now, perhaps this was Mantel's intention - pride before a fall, and all that - but life feels a little too short for this long-winded book. Perhaps I shall return to it at some point.
