Good lord, can Hilary Mantel write. I think I'm just most blown away by the richness of her imagination. Such an easy book to get lost in. Zippier than Wolf Hall, which is good and bad. The characters aren't developed quite as beautifully here as in Wolf Hall, but then again they don't need to be. By rights the two should really be one book, or at least no one should read Bring Up the Bodies without reading the earlier book first.
