Classic Cloak And Dagger. . . Mediaeval Style!
Rating:
5 / 5
If you're anything like me, you hated reading the Canterbury Tales at school. OK, Chaucer is a literary genius of classical verse, and his work has undoubtedly had an enlightening effect on post Dark Age literature, but weren't 'The Tales' just really boring confessions of a medieval window cleaner? Reader, I must apologize to Chaucer - his pervasive influence is clear in Paul Doherty's series of Pilgrim's Tales. This first episode - The Knight's Tale, is a morbid and suspenseful adventure - and it's simply one of the best books ever written. Michael Crichton, learn from the best! And Mr. Spielberg, when you're ready to make the movie... give me a call!
