I liked it because it's original historical fantasy. I didn't really like it because I'm Italian and it gave me high school nightmares with all that Latin, Dante and poetry, LOL! :) Thank God I've forgotten everything about that time period, so if there were inconsistencies, I'm not aware of them. Besides, it's historical fantasy, so anything goes. I admit I skipped the Latin and poetry bits - but that's just me. Also, the first half is much slower than the second half, the trip through Hell feels rushed compared to the set up.
