The size of the book has been a bit daunting.<br /><br />I read The Man in the Iron Mask some years ago. I thought it kind of depressing, actually. It ended in a much darker way that either of the movie versions I had seen.Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31647067.post-81912482128366914522012-07-27T13:05:57.594-07:002012-07-27T13:05:57.594-07:00Yes, you people.
