I am nearing the end of this series and hating it---hating the end of it I mean. Brother Cadfael is a 'real person' and as true man of a merciful God. His adventures are, at times, a welcome escape from my other readings.

This mystery was somewhat different than the rest. Of course, there is at least one murder and at least two lovers, along with several mysteries. It was actually somewhat low-key, but I still stayed up at night until I finished it. The difference is that the book was about a book. And, of course, that is something PBS members can relate to.
