The Dragon and the Raven by G.A. Henty

2.0

Part of my lack of enthusiasm for this book is probably due to the audiobook narrator, who managed to make even the exciting bits sound terribly dull, and who dragged out the last couple words of his sentences in an oddddd fashiooon. But the story itself lost me at points, especially since the book alternated between following one main character's story and going off on long summaries of historical events. Good historical fiction makes you feel as though you were present, not as though you're sitting through a lecture of the most significant events of the time period.
