The one hundred and seventeenth book: #89 The Lion of Flanders - Hendrik Conscience

I was obviously able to read this in its near original version, with Flemish just updated to fix some spelling but otherwise pretty much readable. It feels outdated that way and was trickier to get into just from that - similar to the English language titles from a century or two earlier. The specific history is quite interesting, even if it feels some of it is manufactured. The courtly intrigues that lead up to it aren't always as interesting, but the action of the final fight is quite exciting and on the whole the story pans out quite interesting, especially having some context but not as much as to recognise everything.
