More To Play the King squee
I finished To Play the King this afternoon (I swear I'll write up an actually intelligent post about both House of Cards and this series soon). OMFG.
Awww, Stamper T_T I knew it was going to happen, not only because I spoiled myself in the internets, but come on, once Urquhart knew he knew, he was doomed. But but - with the "I only wanted to serve him. To be close to him." And the indignant betrayal at Urquhart's browbeating, and the "I didn't show you this just to make you upset - but that was an added benefit -" XD Such a bad man, and I love him.
I'm beginning to wonder when Urquhart is going to start cracking up and have a dream where the ghosts of everybody he's killed parade in front of him and Ratcliff er... his wife? Who's he got left? has to pat him and tell him everything will be fine.
And I was SO RELIEVED that nothing horrific happened to David Mycroft. Resigning was probably better for him in the long run considering what happened to the poor King, even though it was rotten, of course, that he felt he needed to. I loved the King ;_; Forced to abdicate because you speak out for justice and caring and equality! Urquhart is so eeeeeevil o_o
I have the third series on DVD, and I know nothing about what happens in that one, so woohoo!
