Good Historical 13th Century Murder Mystery
By James Dainis
A legate of the Pope arrives in Saint Edmond's Abbey in 1201 AD. He intends to investigate to see if all is being conducted as it should be in the shire. He and his clerk go to the local market to harangue the people there for engaging in commerce on a Sunday. A melee breaks out and the clerk is found murdered with an iron bar through his chest. A seller of gloves, who had argued with the legate, is charged with the murder. Brother Walter believes the man is innocent and intends to find the real murderer.
This is a very well written historical novel with good dialogue and descriptions. It is written in a lighter vein with many humorous one liners throughout. This makes it a joy to read. One can get a good idea of what life was like in England in the 13th century and how justice (if it can be called that) was carried out. One might get the idea that justice was not as much sought after as was simply finding someone to blame and convict of the crime . Then people could move on with their lives. I was not too happy with the ending but that did not take away from my over all enjoyment of the book. If you like accurate historical novels with some humor added then this book is worth a look. I intend to read other books in this series.

Very, very good
By Crone Dancer
Excellently researched and mostly very well-written. My only criticism is that it should have been better proof-read. The missing words and, yes, commas, distracted a bit from the pace of the story.

Absolutely fabulous historical mystery
By Marie Shirley Griffin Reading/Allen's Shopping
This series which revolves around Brother Walter XlWorth, physician and Benedictine monk, during the period of 1190-1210 is just wonderful.
When I first began reading I didn't realize that virtually everyone and everything was true! The characters, many of them returning throughout the series become like old friends or intensely disliked/distrusted advisories.
The mysteries are intriguing and difficult to unravel. Despite this, the stories move quickly and sometimes with laugh out loud moments (there are just not enough moments with Walter, Lady Isabel, Walter's mother and her long suffering servant, Oswald- unfortunately, there aren't any in this book at all).
Whether you are a history buff or not, if you're looking for an intelligent, quick witted, down right difficult to figure out mystery with three-dimensional characters, this series is not to be missed.
