I think I'm about ready to re-read Lymond, and that got me to wondering whether anyone else here liked them.

I always have to knit up my resolve when I re-read them: to quote the wonderful review on Emerald City: " ...as the series progresses, Dunnett develops a talent for emotional cruelty that is hopefully unsurpassable."

The reviewer then comments, "The plots are incredibly complex (be warned, Dunnett also writes detective novels) and, as with Gene Wolfe, you can find yourself getting to the end of a book and still not having a clue about what was actually going on" but also says that "Nothing, in my experience, has brought that ancient world to life more vividly than these books."

Great stuff, actually. Has anyone else read them?
