I've just started a complete reread of my favourite historical novels - Dorothy Dunnett's "Lymond Chronicles". For those who like historical fiction, and haven't read them - DO! The six books are "Game Of Kings", "Queens' Play", "The Disorderly Knights", "Pawn In Frankincense", "The Ringed Castle" and "Checkmate", set around the middle of the 16th century in Scotland and mainland Europe. Lots of political intrigue, some fascinating characters and a really complex hero.

Only you can't borrow my set, 'cause [livejournal.com profile] stevieannie gets 'em next.

From [livejournal.com profile] pontefract:

"The name of the game is Petals Around the Rose. The name of the game is important. The computer will roll five dice and ask you to guess the score for the roll. The score will always be zero or an even number. Your mission is to work out how the computer calculates the score and become a Potentate of the Rose."

Please don't spoil it in comments for anyone who hasn't figured it out.
