DOUBLE Book Review: Tales of the Long Bow + Assassin's Apprentice

I hadn't mentioned that I was reading G.K. Chesterton's Tales of the Long Bow at the same time as other books. It is, in fact, the first published novel I've read entirely online, via Project Gutenberg. What can I say; it wasn't at the local bookstore or library.

Since the above web version doesn't make for easy bookmarking, I took to reading a chapter at a time, sometimes weeks or months apart.
