A review by dllh
Gentlemen of the Road by Michael Chabon

3.0

Enjoyed it but not enough that I didn't sneak two other books in between starting and finishing it. The book's a bit of a haze of names of groups of people I wasn't much familiar with, so I read mostly for the sword fights and the humor and felt like I was giving short shrift to the history and culture it invites further understanding of. It's a very short read. The afterword, in which Chabon makes sort of a defense of his having written such a book, is a nice little read.
