Crispin Guest Medieval Noir
review 1: I liked that this one had a bit more politics/history than the previous one and the use of minor characters was improved. Not quite sure how I feel about the overall message and some of the politically/culturally progressive aspects of the plot as the setting is feudal England, they seem a bit far-fetched. Oh well. Hopefully that's all done with and the author doesn't get more preachy in the next book.
review 2: Place a cracking good espionage thriller of today into a medieval setting, with all the mystery, the murders and the seemingly impossible task our hero meets to solve the crimes and you have a winner. Crispin Guest dons his cloak and dagger once again and struggles against even greater odds, placing himself and those he cares for in great danger. Yet
... more once again he wins out, and once again he lets his stubborn pride get the better of him, turning his back of the greatest prize and sadly the chance to help cure some of the ills that his travelling companions have to bear. less
