I finished reading this book quite a while ago (June of 2011 to be exact) and was waiting until I read the sequel to post about it, but since I don't seem to be getting on with it I figured I'd post what I wrote over a year ago about Sailing to Sarantium. FACT: Guy Gavriel Kay is my all time favourite Canadian author, I haven't read all of his novels yet but am coming close! What makes his books great to me is how he mixes historical facts with myth and fantasy in a smooth enough way that you are convinced that these things actually happened.
In case you didn't already know I love to read books, and since I've been reading so many lately I thought I'd share my thoughts on them with you :) Alas I have had to leave employment at Chapters to concentrate on school but never fear for many a books will still be read!
