Title: Connie Willis' best work yet
Review: I've read Doomsday Book so many times I've lost count, but I still love it. This is by far the most cinematic of Willis' works, but it seemed that she put a lot more work into the characters in the past. The sisters--Rosemund and Agnes--were my favorites. Yes, Rosemund was constantly in a bad mood, but who can blame her? How would any young girl react if they were betrothed to someone like Sir Bloet. Agnes, though, stole my heart. She was such a spirited little girl (I did feel sorry for Blackie, the puppy).... What I liked best, though, was when Kivrin first arrived in the past. The sections written in Old English are fun to try to decipher. Do yourself a favor and read this book.
