Atmospheric, but not quite atmospheric enough. A simple quickly-solved mystery, not enough every day detail or character building to satisfy. Dialog is sometimes a little off, sounding stilted or contrived. ( ) I enjoyed this book (see below.) The less said about what happens in the book, the better, in my opinion. One of the reasons I liked this so much the first time is a mystery to me, because I might have given this 4 stars this time, but am going to go with what I put here first. However, I quite liked the "guest star" characters and a number of things particular to this mystery. In addition, I particularly enjoyed Cadfael's continued friendship with a recurring character, but if you've never read any books in this series please read the second one before any subsequent ones, although the ideal way is to read them in order from the first one. This is my second time reading this book and I know I rated it 5 stars, but I can't find any review or a date for when I read it before sometime between 2016 and 2018 (when I read the one right before and after it so since I first added this on July 8, 2017, I'm going with the end of that month for a first read. Natividad del señor, año 1141. El abad Radulfo regresa de Londres, trayendo consigo a un sacerdote para el beneficio vacante de la Santa Cruz; un hombre de gran pestancia, erudción y disciplina, aunque carente de humildad y capacidad de comunicación con los demás. Cuando le descubren ahogado en el estanque del molino, la sospecha se extiende en distintas direcciones, particularmente, hacia un joven que acompañaba al sacerdote, que había sido enviado a trabajar en el huerto de fray Cadfael y que estaba claro que carecía de vocación sacerdotal. Es más, pronto se atrae la amistad de una joven tan hermosa como temible. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML:A despised priest is drowned in a pond in this medieval mystery filled with "lively period detail" (Kirkus Reviews). In a mild December in the year of our Lord 1141, a new priest comes to the parishioners of the Foregate outside the Abbey of Saint Peter and Saint Paul. Father Ailnoth brings with him a housekeeper and her nephew??and a disposition that invites murder. Brother Cadfael quickly sees that father Ailnoth is a harsh man who, striding along in his black cassock, looks like a doomsaying raven. The housekeeper's nephew, Benet, is quite different??a smiling lad, a hard worker in Cadfael's herb garden, but, as Brother Cadfael soon discovers, an impostor. And when Ailnoth is found drowned, suspicion falls on Benet, though many in the Foregate had cause to want this priest dead. Now Brother Cadfael is gathering clues along with his medicinals to treat a case of unholy passions, tragic politics, and perhaps divine interve Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |
