old english language

Personally i have to say thatthe speaking in this book is really starting to annoy me. It takes the person 5 pages, the whole first chapter to say that the man married his friends daughter, and then they adopted a daughter of their own. The grammer, and the syntax makes th pages go very slowly, and even when i try to sit and read them i fail to. but the emotion that is expressed in this book is a world apart form the ones i have noticed in the books i read. people of today want action and drama and fighting in their reading. in this era of writing, people were looking more for connection to themselves, not so much an escape of reality. Science fiction was not even considered yet. This book is the missing link between the slow, emotionial turmoil of the stories of yester year, compared to the intense, fast paced, fanciful stories of today.
