Michael Guy is a gifted composer as well author who has the ability to create such marvellous works such as ‘The Last Renaissance Man’. Between you and me, Michael, my favorite Chapter begins on page 134. I’m not half the writer you are. A very original book that’s captivating, truly. Love the characters and this spellbinding, historical fantasy read. Wishing you much success! C H Ibbitson
