Description

The Gentleman with the Thistle Down Hair, from Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell.

If you are a fan of Jane Austen and adventure, you cannot pass this book up. Even if you aren't, you must read it.

This is the main baddy of the series, and also one of my favourite characters. He's become a sort of muse for me; anytime I can't draw something, I can go to him.

(also, if you've read these books: should not this character be cast, if it were a movie, as James McAvoy? Not gonna lie, I think of him while drawing the gentleman!)

I saw this thumbnail and the title and knew exactly which Gentleman it was! He looks great--very mischievous.

And I agree that this book is awesome. It's so fun and well written and the characters are great. A friend and I made up a cast list for most of the main characters and we thought David Tennant (Dr. Who, Barty Crouch Jr.) would be a good Gentleman. He does cheerful crazy well, we thought. James McAvoy seems to nice for the part, much as I love him in Penelope.
