"Book 8 is probably my favorite so far as all of the sudden it turns into a telenovela with Natasha Rostov being the naive girl who is being conned by Anatole Kuragin, as the cad.

Book 9 features Napoleon as an egomaniacal despot who does everything he can to start a war with a peaceful nation. To say that the people of Greenland would find this prescient is an understatement."
