This is a very long book, but the plot, which keeps getting more and more complicated and surprising, races along at a breakneck pace. It is one of the best adventure stories ever written - and it is based on real history! The only thing that might put some people off is the old-fashioned language.
By far and away the best aspect (for me) is the astoundingly uplifting quality of the narrative. Comparable to three pints of Youngs on an empty stomach after half a chapter you will feel that all is right with the world and after the battle scenes you may feel it necessary to re-enact the sword play with an old golf club.
Far outshines the authors other work and will provide you with many hours priceless entertainment.
