Were you equally appalled by the language of Argall, penned by Mr. Vollmann
of course. I consider both books quite impressive, to say the least.
Argall is easily the best of the Seven Dreams series so far. Having read
outlines for the remaining three volumes I am probably most looking forward
to the one on King Philip's War.
