Title: How did this win the Nebula and the Hugo?
Review: People have been recommending this author to me for years, and I finally picked up her Nebula & Hugo award winning title... and wow, was I disappointed. Read the Amazon editor's sumation and other reviews for the storyline, but here's my complaints:- contrived plot that doesn't explain itself- many 2 dimensional characters that were uneeded, except as comic relief and a way for Ms. Willis to demonstrate her obvious knowledge regarding 14th century EnglandThis book would have been much better with characters who had believable motivations and if the project had a better editor; no matter how long a book takes to be written, any good editor would've chopped well over 100 pages off this.
