Much Better than Ground Steak Covered in Gravy
As Tomeful Tuesday draws to a close, I have to accept that my review of the latest Pathfinder Tales novel is not going to be finished. So, I will trot out an oldy but goody to recommend to anyone who has yet to read it. Salisbury is one of my favorite medieval cathedrals that I've never been to (yet). Sarum is my favorite book about (among other things) one of my favorite cathedrals that I've never been to -- by one of my favorite historical novelists. Rutherford, like Michener and Frank Herbert, covers large periods of time and helps develop the historical imagination. Great historical color and detail, and a great learning tool for people who want to think about how to run extended or inter-related plots or campaigns across time.
