I got Good Masters! Sweet Ladies! yesterday and started reading it on the way home from the library--and... oh my goodness; I'm going to have to post about this on LJ... okay but short version: I was completely enthralled; I *love* it. And the blacksmith's daughter's story was one of my favorites so far. I liked the story of the moneylender's son and the merchant's daughter too--their silent half-hour companionably skipping stones together before having to return to societally enforced enmity--poignant. And I love how the stories tie together.
