Definitely worth your time

I only want to add the 5-star rating for a well-deserved variety of work. BTW, the smack-down of Kant at the end was exquisite.

Worth the money but hard-going

Wonderfully inscribed reinterpretation of the Middle Ages, though a bit extended and already dated recognizing the general interest in revisiting the period.
