I wasn't sure where to put this thread.... Here will have to do!

With all the excitement regards the possible new expansion :
http://www.carcassonnecentral.com/forum/index.php?topic=983.0
I realised this has never come up. There's supposedly a book/novel about Carcassonne with this new game/expansion, but have any of you ever read Labyrinth by Kate Mosse?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/Labyrinth-Kate-Mosse/dp/0752877321/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1245931672&sr=1-1
It's a novel set in two time zones - present day and the time of the Cathars, all in Carcassonne.... and it's excellent! If you want to get a feel of the time, and like a good mystery/thriller along the DaVici Code/Last Templar/Righteous Men grail gripper style of things then this top of the tree in my book!

Well, it was mentioned briefly in the games/hobby thread, so it has come up.  Perhaps you might even know the guy who talked about it.  He goes by the name of Wishmaster Grin

So I did!!  Grin Grin Grin

Oh well it deserves a thread of it's own!  But I brought it up today because of the new expansion thread and it's novel (Hope they do an English version of that). But all Carcassonne fans should read Labyrinth.

There is quite a wide variety of reviews for this book at the amazon site.  Looks like the majority either loved or hated it.
