Just started The Sapphire Rose, book #3 of The Elenium by David Eddings.
This is the book which taught me that politics is FAR colder than steel. That, along with a solid idea of how the real-world Catholic Church functions. It must be remembered, after all, that the best Fantasies are firmly grounded in reality, for that is what gives life to all the evil gods, Child-Goddesses, and arcane cosmology coupled with blood-mad Sorcerer Kings.
A fantasy author is just another name for one who has a foot within the borders of Faerie
