it was amazing

The fourth installment in this excellent series and it is easily worth five stars. One of the best things about these books is the delightful way the author discusses all the details of the lifestyle of Tudor England. I have always found this a fascinating period of history and C.J. Sansom knows how to make the most of it. In this book Matthew Shardlake our daring, hunchback, lawyer/detective is working for Archbishop Cranmer and HenryVIII is preparing to marry Catherine Parr. Life becomes very dangerous at times for our hero and there are numerous very gruesome murders! Extremely entertaining and for me unputdownable! Now for the next one:)

Carolyn You're powering through this series Phrynne!


Phrynne Can't help it - they are so good. Only two more to go though:(

Carolyn I still have two to read as well - have a big hardback copy of Heartstone sitting on my bookshelf, too big for the train and a bit cumbersome for reading in bed but I should try to get it soon. The sixth one only came out last year so I'm guessing could be next year before we see number 7.

Paul Weiss Great review, Phrynne. Haven't read anything by Sansom in quite some time. Sounds like I should change that!


Phrynne Such a great series Paul!!!
