i've totally just joined that community! thanks!

I never liked Lymond to start with, even when I was younger. He always seemed like a bit of a Mary Sue character (ie he's so talented in all these different ways, and sexy) and then seemed so content to remain misunderstood, almost to the point that he never even tried to explain himself even when he did have the chance. So when we were supposed to feel sorry for him because everyone hated/mistrusted him, I would be like, "Well, it's his own fault." I love Dunnett, but I think these parts are overly constructed. It's funny, what I consider flaws almost make me love the books more; I certainly care more than I cared about other authors. (I got to meet her, too! *squee* back in 2000). I posted about this in more detail once on marzipan yahoo and got yelled at for daring to think the author wasn't perfect. :) c'est la vie! I should give the Niccolo books another chance. especially since I am now so close to Bruges!
