- Excellent Tudor Mystery
What an excellent Tudor mystery - Sansom really brings Tudor life 'back to life'! If you enjoy grizzly murder mysteries with twists and turns then this is for you. It is well up to the standard of the previous 3 Shardlake novels and we can only hope the fourth one will not be too long in arriving! Read and enjoy - one to immerse onself in on a cold winter night!
Rating: - Gripping!
Absolutely gripping, kept me guessing right up to the end.
The style was absorbing and it gave the sense that you in the midst of the group as the events unfolded.
A brilliant book - I hope this is not the end of Serjeant Shardlake!
Buy it and get stuck in.

Into this heady mix comes a serial killer who seems to be selecting his victims ... Read More

- Dreary dreary woe woe
While agreeing with all the three-star reviewers, I am afraid that I can't even rate Revelation as high as three stars. Like Zola fan "Nana" I stopped reading half-way through but returned a few days later in hopes that the action would pick up at the end. Shardlake has always had rousing climaxes. But no, the book just ground on and on through one red herring after another and finally here he is again with yet another broken heart. But lo! we are all set up for the next installment--the Catholic plot ... Read More
