On the second book of the #Shardlake series by #CjSansom. They are really, really good if one is into Historical Fiction. @bookstodon
Reading C. J. Sansom's "Dissolution":
"Reputedly a copy of Aristotle's lost work /On Comedy/.", he said. "A fake, of course. Thirteenth century Italian, but beautiful nonetheless."
🤣
The secretly Protestant Queen's confessional book goes missing, with only a page found in the hands of a dying printer. Henry VIII is dying, and Catholic-Protestant tensions rise higher. Shardlake must solve the mystery & save the Queen.

While England & France prepare for war, Shardlake must solve the mystery of the person behind the "monstrous crimes" perpetrated against a ward of the state!

Trist. Jeg har hatt stor glede av å lese bøkene om sakføreren Matthew Shardlake. Krimbøker lagt til Henrik VIII tid med troverdig historisk ramme.

Finished Dissolution by CJ Sansom last night. Excellent read with a Name of the Rose vibe. Sadly, I hear today that he's died. #cjsansom

When your 16 year old messages you from school saying 'hey mum, these look good'.
Finally, I'm not the only one interested in reading historical fiction!
I have not read them (yet) but have ordered the first five to get him (us) started.
