well, the whole POINT of historical fiction is to take something that really happened, and write a fake story about, while changing things to fit your story. if it WAS completly accurate, it wouldnt be historical fiction anymore.

i dont even know why im defending the book. i didnt even LIKE the book.

I'm not saying it has to be completely accurate, i said its a good book, what pisses me off is when people take it like a history book and start quoting "facts" from it. It's when people are ignorant that it is fiction that makes me mad :P.
