I would like to thank all of my Facebook friends who shared the news about Sunne’s bargain price on your own Facebook pages. (It is now #212!) I really appreciate your help, and I am sure Richard does, too. I feel the need to speak for him since I doubt that he has Wi-Fi at Leicester Cathedral.
I have some news about the first King Richard, too. Macmillan is publishing the paperback edition of A King’s Ransom today. Another very dramatic cover; the Macmillan art department has a flair for that, and I suspect the Lionheart would approve. He appears larger than life, defiant, fearless, and handsome in a dangerous sort of way. Knowing what we do of Richard’s personality---no shrinking violet, he---that probably matches his own self-image. Whereas I think the Richard on the paperback cover of Sunne looked resolute, but haunted. I will include that link, too, for those who have not seen it.
