Went looking for Peter Ackroyd's book on Dickens; discovered that he also wrote books about London, Thomas More, King Arthur, Venice, and Shakespeare. So it looks like I need to read pretty much everything he ever wrote.

ETA: Oh, and also the Tudors. Yegads.

Good writer? I'm not familiar with him. Like I need more books to add to the eternal Wish List! I think I'm going to spend the first couple thousand years of eternity catching up. *g*

I want to be Peter Ackroyd when I grow up. He seems like such a genius and gets to do all sorts of fun things! I've got his book on London sitting on my bookcase, one of these days I'll get around to it...
