Yes, Swordspoint deserved a 10. I read it years ago and still to this day am amazed at how I didn’t actually like any character in that book but loved the book.

Have you read anything else by Ellen Kushner? I really like everything she writes, although she isn’t prolific.
Paulette, you’re welcome! It’s such a compliment when people read books because I really liked ‘em!
