Title: Disappointing!
Review: I had heard great things about this book, but was really disappointed reading it. There are a lot of historical inaccuracies and anacronisms, and all the action happens "off-stage" so to speak. Hardly anything is actually dramatized, so it all feels very distant. I am very interested in the Children's Crusade, but felt this doesn't capture the medieval mindset at all and does not do a good job of capturing the fervor of the time. Perhaps the original Dutch version is better, but I'm afraid that the English one is to be missed.
