Title: Who wrote this?
Review: I've read many of Joan Wolf's books and loved them. When I bought this, I was delighted--until I started to read it. It seems like a rough draft by a very poor writer. The book starts with Cristen giving haircuts to all the men in the castle--is that exciting? In that scene, we discover the hero has to use his own comb because his stepmother always told him to do this. What? Then goes into a discussion of politics at that time. Boring.And the writing is elementary as in this line. "Be quiet," she replied sternly. "You are worse than Brian." Brian was her father's page.How clumsy! Did an editor ever read this?
