Now Reading: Sir Apropos of Nothing

Finally decided that I wasn't going to finish The Count of Monte Cristo any time soon, so now I am reading a fantasy satire called Sir Apropos of Nothing.

Interesting things about it...

• Narration is completely anachronistic for the medieval setting (uses modern vernacular in some cases)
• Main character can be a total douche at times

It's refreshing to find a pragmatic and cynical character, but at times he's just a downright jerk. Sometimes it's a little annoying. I continue reading in hopes he'll grow up and mature a little bit more.

I'm about halfway through right now, things are getting more interesting.

Summary will come in the next post.
