[5] Release and reception [ edit ] Although arrant is a variant of errant, their modern meanings have diverged. Arrant is used in the sense “complete; downright; utter” (for example, “arrant knaves”), while errant means “roving around; wandering” and is often used after the noun it modifies (for example, “knight errant”). The use of errant to mean “complete; downright; utter”, and arrant to mean “roving around; wandering”, is obsolete.At each of these stops Filidor runs into trouble with the monomaniacal natives where he has a hazardous and bizarre adventure. Even traveling between the towns turns out to be full of risks. Throw in an evil wizard that wants the box that Filidor is supposed to deliver to the Archon. Miss Silver, a retired governess-turned private detective, is sometimes compared to Jane Marple, the elderly detective created by Agatha Christie. She works closely with Scotland Yard, especially Inspector Frank Abbott and is fond of quoting the poet Tennyson. A charming little novel that gets right to the point. Full of perilous twists and turns, one watches as a young man named Filidor travels across a mysterious world with a well-traveled companion, turning himself from a young man of bored leisure into a capable man of action. The compound noun knight-errant(always hyphenated, pluralized as knights-errant) dates from medieval literature and refers to a knight who roves the countryside engaging in adventures. Examples

Arrant means complete or absolute. Errant means (1) roving, or (2) straying from the proper course. Arrant was originally a variant of errant,but it long ago developed a meaning of its own. It has negative connotations, usually modifyingnegative nouns (e.g., arrant fool, arrant nonsense). Patricia Wentworth's classic mystery stories are a bit of a cultivated taste, but I am hooked. They tend to be gentle romances as much as period mysteries, but I love spending time in her world. Really enjoyed the story. It does follow the common "quest" format in fantasy but still offers lots of humor and randomness with all the wit and sarcasm you'd expect in a world built on The Dying Earth.

Please read chapter one as I did and had to borrow this book immediately (actually I just started it and said, 'well that's how it goes'): http://www.twbookmark.com/books/43/04... I really love these books from between the wars. Well, I'm not crazy about the casual racism, sexism, and xenophobia, but the core of the story is corny genius. Hugo alternates between blushing and stammering like an ingenue and doing the right thing because, dash it all, he's an English gentleman. The heroine can be pretty annoying in a 'silly little woman' way at times (the internalised misogyny of the great Golden Age women crime writers is truly a spectacle), but in fairness, this is mostly while the hero has failed to tell her what's going on, and she ends up being plot-crucial and acting with great sense, so points for that. A pleasure. crossexaminingcrime: We have the love interest, though thankfully the woman although a bit of twerp is bearable. Ultimately she redeems herself at the end, as during the middle of the book I think both me and Ross wanted to slap her, as she finds him too dictatorial when he advises sensible decisions e.g. Let’s not make lots of noise to attract the bad guys’ attentions. […] from Vulgar Latin iterāre (compare Late Latin itinerāre, itinerāri ( “ to travel, voyage ” )), from Latin iter ( “ a route (including a journey, trip; a course; a path; a road) ” ), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *h₁ey- ( “ to go ” ); and

Further events follow, with the sinister plot against Ross unfolding rapidly. The tension builds up as the day of the “theft” arrives. Wentworth is adept at continually surprising the reader in the final section of the novel leaving the reader wondering if Ross will be triumphant or whether he will be ultimately enveloped by the machinations against him. Things do not go to plan for either side and Ross has the additional task of saving the woman he loves, as this being a Wentworth novel, there must be a love interest. Not my favorite Wentworth (I'm partial to the Miss Silvers) but..... The lead ingenue character is cursed by the name "Loveday" so what can she be but a semi-total ding-dong. I spent a lot of her scenes wanting to give her a sound shaking. On a dark, foggy night, Hugo Ross encounters a beautiful woman. She claims to be running away and begs Hugo not to tell anyone that he’s seen her. Before boarding her train, she warns him not to take the job he’s applying for: secretary to eccentric inventor Ambrose Minstrel. The train pulls away, and the stunning stranger is gone. When looking for employment be careful not to take up jobs at places you have been warned against and always be suspicious of employer eccentricity and if you don’t believe me you’d best read Patricia Wentworth’s Fool Errant (1929). […] Desperate for employment, Hugo ignores her warning and takes the job. He’s barely moved into Meade House when a message from Loveday Leigh is hand-delivered: He must leave immediately and burn the letter. When they finally meet again at Waterloo Station, Loveday is not the mysterious woman Hugo remembers. Odd happenings continue, and he enlists the help of the esteemed Benbow Smith, an enigmatic figure connected to London’s Foreign Office. Soon Hugo is caught up in an undercover plot involving governmental intrigue, industrial espionage, and stolen military secrets.

After the second time that Gaskarth leaves Filidor alone to go to the local Archonate office, I would have expected him to try to accompany the dwarf. Other than that Filidor does learn along the way, which is the point of the story. How he started off avoiding meaningful endeavors and now sees that sort of life is a waste, even though the adventures have been terrifying and dangerous.
