This is a fabulous introduction to a series on 12th century Paris, a real treat for anyone interested in art and architecture, medieval society, particularly the roles of women within society and the Church. The heroine Catherine LeVendeur, is strong, bright, impulsive and everlastingly curious. The series also addresses the uneasy relationship between the Jews and the rest of society.
