- Simply amazing!

I loved this book - couldn't put it down. You can really see, smell and taste life in tudor England. A brilliant, unputdownable read which i will be recommending to friends and family. Sansom's books just keep getting better and better! Roll on the next Shardlake mystery.

The author solves his dilemma by throwing everything but the kitchen sink into the fourth Shardlake book. However, he can write and has a grasp of period detail which is plenty convincing enough to carry lay readers along. This reader at least ... Read More
