I find that there are things with almost the exact same storyline where I engage madly with one and with the other I want to kick everyone and complain about it all day long. There are certain things that are bound to set me off, of course, but I'm not sure with a good enough writer or actor you couldn't get around that. Though I have to say I've never read anything outside a period novel (i.e. of the past) where someone has made me not want to kill the aristocratic hero who is born magically to command.
