Alan Gordon
St. Martin's Minotaur
, 2007
In 1203, the ships of the Fourth Crusade, instead of traveling to the Holy Land, show up outside the walls of Constantinople and besiege the city. Within the walls, the jester couple Theophilos and Viola, agents of the Fools? Guild (and working under the names Feste and Aglaia), are on a mission to avert catastrophe. With disaster looming, the death of one silk merchant in the city's Venetian Quarter seems insignificant. The merchant, ...

Meditate on your life; find your spiritual strength.
Diabetes has been my "search engine" for meaning in life. Diagnosed in 1957 when I was 10 years old, I found diabetes to be a teacher, a means to learn about life and about myself. The greatest lessons have been spiritual which comes as no suprise for the seeking of meaning is a spiritual process. In the Foreword to my book, Dr. Rachel Naomi Remen (author of Kitchen Table Wisdom) writes: ...

Historical mystery at its finest
If you love history, mystery and a dash of humor with intrigue, you will enjoy the Fool's Guild Mystery series. This is the first I've read and have ordered several others, starting with number one. Enjoy the subtle references to Shakespeare's 12th Night, and stay hooked 'til its satisfying end without 'deus ex machina' to make everything work out. A great romp into the past with engaging ...

Gordon is a genius!!!...
I have read the entire series so far; and in my opinion, it seems to get better with each book. That being said I just finishing "A Death in the Venetian Quarter" this morning, disappointed only because I finished it. It was an HUGE effort not to start re-reading it immediately. This is one of the most entertaining series of novels that I have ever read. All of the characters are fascinating. ...

intelligent and witty
Alan Gordon has become one of my favorite mystery writers over the past couple of years, ever since a friend recommended his Fool's Guild series to me. :-) His books are witty and intelligent (one of them is a sequel of sorts to Shakespeare's Twelth Night and another purports to tell the true story behind Hamlet). And he covers two of the Crusades (the one involving Richard Lionheart and the ...

As the lone superpower, the United States, through military, economics, political, or diplomatic means, is largely responsible for structuring intervention choices--issues, debates, actions, and means--in the world community.
