    On Kings is brilliant and way more anthropologically dense than his other work. I wouldn't say it's necessarily aimed at a lay audience, but you can still slog your way through it. This is such a shitty loss though.

      Yeah it's definitely not a casual "hmmm what shall I read tonight" kind of book, but I truly do love it. The dense-ness made it only more impressive in my eyes, since as a lay person who is not an anthropologist I was still able to make it through and take away tons of insights. Huge loss.
