Would you recommend this series to someone who didn't like Game of Kings? Thing is, I had the feeling I was supposed to immediately fall in love with the dark mysterious Lymond, where in point of fact I found him obnoxious and melodramatic -- so I tended to skip everything to do with him, which of course leaves out an extremely large part of the book. I did like the remaining bits, though, so I'd be willing to try again :)
