Yeah, I do now wish that I'd waited to read Beguilement until Legacy was published.
It's funny about GGK, because I usually don't have a huge problem with somewhat-mannered writing styles... but occasionally one just rubs me totally the wrong way for some reason. Piers Anthony is the other one I can think of offhand (well, ok, Anthony has maaaaany other issues besides his writing style).
Hm, I don't remember exactly *what* bugged me about his Arthurian-legend stuff, just that I remember ranting to people about it at the time :) My husband likes them, though, and owns a copy, so maybe I'll have to go back and look.

I did like Tigana, though :)
