Some links to interesting things in the book that I had to look up.

It was a marmite book, some enjoyed it and some didn't. Not as bad as cleaning the oven was one comment. 3 marks at the 2 level and 5 at 6/7. Average 5.
A good comment was that they got to feel the language, enjoyed as a light read, lots of characters, and good atmosphere of the court.
Otherwise it was poorly written, almost as the second book of a two book deal. Others felt nothing for any of the characters and weren't drawn into it. Not enough precise detail. I couldn't fathom who-dun-it.
