    The Elements of Style (your favorite points)?

    Actualy, you use parenthesis is when you come to the escential, wich is you haven't a clue about what you are talking about. Simplicity is not the fault of Dan Brown, simplicity is beautifull, over simplification, vulgarity, cheap charaterisation, cliché, you-name-it... but not worst than many...

    Medieval adventure?

    Great suggestions from BG In a lighter note, have you read Guy Gavriel Kay ? Exactly what you are looking for, chevalery, great heroic charactere, and a bit of romance but not stupid, superb women charactere. The lion of Al Rassan is unforgetable.
