3.5 stars actually. This was fun, and since that's what it was meant to be, I believe that Mr. Blixt succeeded in what he set out to achieve. I believe that your experience with this book will depend on your background. I mean that's probably true to some extent with most books, but especially with this book. For example if your a Shakespeare fan, a fan of classical theater, or a student of English history then I have a feeling you'll enjoy it more than someone who isn't any of those things. And that would be me. I can't stand Shakespeare, I haven't read many (maybe any) plays, I do love English history, but other than some historical fantasy novels, I don't really have a clue.

I assumed that this book was going to be much more absurd than it was, especially because of the author's reference to Robert Asprin's Myth series, but instead it was was a swashbuckling romp, through a "real" historical setting and with a pair less than competent heroes. ( )

I so enjoyed the banter of the two main characters and the way they got out of each impossible situation. The words that come to mind were "swashbuckling" and "farce." Adorable, fun read! ( )

Perhaps the most entertaining Historical Fiction I have ever read! ( )

Free on Kindle. Enjoyable story about Shakespeare & Marlowe wandering around trying to be spies. Spoiler: If this continues then at some point only Will will go on.
