Still an excellent historical fiction in its own right, though I found it far less compelling than the first two entries in the series. Barely anything takes place in Kingsbridge, and what I liked most about the series was seeing this specific town involved. Most of the plot is centered around courtly intrigue, rather than the day-to-day life in this growing village.
