There Will Be Books

Episode 87 "The Game of Kings"


Listen Later

Much like a complex board game, Dorothy Dunnett's novel "The Game of Kings" is difficult to understand but with effort and patience the reader is rewarded with a complex story and engrossing characters. We both agree this book is probably not for everybody but we discuss why we're glad we read it. A large part of why we liked the book is the main character, Francis Crawford of Lymond, a memorable character whose backstory and mysterious methods make for a rewarding tale. Finally, it's in our nature to get sidetracked, so hopefully you enjoy a good digression on Dave Matthews. Enjoy!
