A grisly tale of a serial killer who disembowels his young victims. Read this one in summer when the cold of the medieval winter will frost you over. Great realism, although characters seem to wear black or white hats of predictabily. Nevertheless, an intriguing plot that weaves between the power of nobility, suppressed Judaism, ignorance, prejudice and superstition. The surprise at the end is an interesting twist exemplifying the desperation of the powerless. A very gripping read. Highly recommended.

This one was disappointing. The ending was much too simplistic, as if the author really didn't put much thought into it. Plus, anytime an author adds a lot of sex to a book, it lets me know he or she has run out of ideas.

And the all-too impulsive beginning and end of the short 'Romance' between Crispin and the girl was just filler.

I have two more in this series. If the above continues then I won't be reading the rest of the books.
