This book is based on fragments of an old English ballad that was reconstructed the '70s. It's about a woman who dresses up as a man and becomes advisor to the King. It's sort of a "Victor/Victoria" story, but told in medieval times and very serious. I found it a little dry, but I really enjoyed it. Sherman has wonderful prose and story-telling ability. She's gone on to be nominated and win several awards for her period pieces and her YA work.
