Add a CommentHaving seen a number of good recommendations for this novel, I looked forward to reading it, but alas I couldn't get into the story. I say this regretfully since I don't easily give up on books. It doesn't help that the narrative takes its time to get going, with this Brother talking to that Prior using a stilted, high language. Even the words themselves feel slow. Not necessarily a bad book, just not for me.
I labored a bit to get through this short book. Brother Cadfael is clever, and mildly irreverent. The book succeeded in surprising me with the end, but other aspects of the story, specifically, the characters were not as engaging.
