4.0 out of 5 stars
Interesting historical fiction,
This review is from: Riven Realm (Coronet Books) (Paperback)
This is a book about Scotland from 1513 and for the eleven years following, written from the point of view of an assistant to the infant King. It follows the times and intrigues very closely, almost to the point of dragging, and definitely to the point of neglecting interesting fictional interpersonal relationships. (His characters were nicely drawn, making me want to know more of them personally than he took the time to flesh out.) Tranter doesn't make much use of dialogue, preferring long narrative passages. However, the quality of writing is very good and it was engrossing; I'm going to get ahold of the sequel, "James, by the grace of God."
