It sounds dull, but it isn't. I have nearly finished it.......am rationing myself with this one.

I read all the Cadfael books years ago and found it hard to get into any other medieval murder series. I do like the Chronicles of Matthew Bartholomew by Susanna Gregory set in Cambridge and the Owen Archer books by Candace Robb, set in York. These have in common with the Cadfael series that they are all set in a very recognisable place that I can identify with, and they are all medieval. I love that period.
