It just gets better and better...
This book was so action packed, I don't think I ever put the book down. It draws you in from page 1 until you realise that you've read the entire book. Characters from the Assassin's Blade were reintroduced, and are now such a crucial part of the plot - SJM is queen.
P.S I hate Chaol even more now.

This is supposed to be the 'new' and 'definitive' biography of Mary, Queen of Scots. Honestly, there was nothing mind-blowing about this biography at all. Most noticeably, of course, is that John Guy is peddling is that Mary wasn't aware of the Darnley murder. I still haven't been given enough evidence to believe that.

Overall, this was an ok book that inspired an ok movie.

Think easier chess
I have the monochrome version and its fab. The aim of the game is to surround the queen using wother sides pieces. The game manufacture has done an easy to follow video and th game comes with clear instructions. It's one of the easiest games I've picked up in a long time.

Great Live Aid scene
Great biopic
I wouldn't call myself a Queen fan but watching this you realise just how many of their songs are so well known. No idea how accurate it is and it gets to the Band being on tour and famous pretty quick. You can see why Rami Malek won an Oscar for this and the Live Aid performance is great.
