The Prince and the Pauper looks like a change from my usual reading. That is half the appeal of a pool like this.

Aoife, i have added a boost too. Would be interesting to see how it sits beside the other choices.

The Prince and the Pauper is one I am weighing up. I would like to see this in the six with a few very different choices around it.

Oisin, i am following this thread for exactly that reason. Happy to hear a few different opinions.

For anyone considering The Prince and the Pauper: This would be a good change of pace from the things currently at the top of my list.
