    <content type="html">Finished Pterry's &lt;i&gt;The Truth&lt;/i&gt; very early this morning. As usual, many aspects of the story seem to apply. The first and final conversation between William de Worde and his father Lord de Worde struck me particularly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Lord de Worde: "Don't you agree, then, that it's time for a ruler who listens to the people?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;William: "Maybe. Which people did you have in mind?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I'll be taking a break from Pterry for a bit. Next up, a short story collection. &lt;i&gt;"Wodehouse on Crime."&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=ksmith&amp;ditemid=2153244" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/&gt; comments</content>
