Well, as part of the "more intelligent" crowd I can tell you that the political intrigue in XII is like vanilla: way over used and done much more flavorful elsewhere.

When you get a bit older you will realize that this kind of political intrigue has been written hundreds, if not thousands of times and by much better authors such as Alexandre Dumas, Shakespeare and others. Heck even in real life and more recently we have better: Lawrence of Arabia's story is much better. Hopefully you will read them one day, since you like the theme. I myself don't dislike it, but I am a bit tired of it, because we're living it in Iraq and we are the Archadians, not the good guys. And our "Lord Vayne" isn't nearly as smart but just as insane as the XII one
