Duncan the Tall is a relatable character who I'd love to read more about. Would recommend to any fan of George R.R. Martin's other work.

It took a while to settle in, and certainly I debated at times to put the book down entirely, but once I accepted this merely was the law of the land at the time of the book's writing, the evil power the church wielded to burn heretics, apostates and of course witches became understandable, which surprised me. The sexism, dehumanizing demonization and lack of understanding in this book is wildly beyond anything that could be written and published today.

However, if you romanticize the history of the church and seek esoteric knowledge thereof, this is a must read. The entire western folklore of witches was basically invented in this book, through the lense of inquisitors. Rest in peace, the many who were burned in the inquisition and witch trials.
