Brother Cadfael books
Aug. 11th, 2015 09:32 pmNext up: I read three Brother Cadfael books in a row! Such a good series.
The Pilgrim of Hate, by Ellis Peters
I'd been sure I hadn't actually read this book - the tenth book in the Brother Cadfael series - because it's one of the few I don't own. (I've been slowly collecting the books over the years via thrift shops and used book sales and the like.) But I realized partway through that I actually have read it before, years ago!

The Summer of the Danes, by Ellis Peters
Ah yes, more Brother Cadfael, always good times. I really liked this one! One of those murder mysteries where the murder mystery is actually relegated to b-plot because it's way less important than the other stuff going on - which in this case is welsh politicking and viking invasion and a young woman who wants control over her own life. Yeah!
Cadfael himself is a delight as always, but I was particularly into the Obligatory Young People Romance in this book, because Heledd is great. ( Read more... )
The Holy Thief, by Ellis Peters
I dunno. I mean, it was good? Brother Cadfael books are always good. But I wouldn't rate this one of my favourites of the series.
