The hook that drew me in was the concept of the Royal Idiot - the person who's job it is to get blamed for things.  I could see an entire D&D; campaign based on that idea...  But I digress.Although Segorian isn't by any means a black-hearted rogue, the tone and story reminded me of an episode of "Blackadder" - fast-moving, good level of comedy throughout, and a generous amount of trouble piling on the hero despite his best efforts to the contrary.  Fortunately, just as heroes have idiotic moments, Idiots have Heroic moments - and sometimes that's enough.Of course, there's room for a sequel, and I'm looking forward to it.
