About the Author
ELLIS PETERS (1913-1995) was the nom de crime of English novelist Edith Pargeter, author of scores of books under her own name.

From AudioFile
This entry in Peters's Brother Cadfael series finds the sixteenth-century monk hosting pilgrims who have traveled to Shrewsbury to commemorate the translation of St. Winifred's bones to the Benedictine abbey. The murder of a knight has political implications which reach Cadfael and involve him and some of the pilgrims in a mystery. Stephen Thorne, who has recorded several of Cadfael's adventures from Chivers, skillfully evokes the time and place with a fully voiced performance. Although the political and historical background presented as conversations in the opening pages results in a slow start, the story, intriguing characters and atmosphere soon captivate the listener.

Hardcover. Condition: UNSPECIFIED. It is A.D. 1141. A year that brings a tide of pilgrims to the Abbey. This is the tenth mystery in the series. You may want to start from the first to let the interacting mysteries reveal themselves in chronological order. This is the second one for me after "The Morbid Taste for Bones." I do have to warn you that the synopsis to "A Morbid Taste for Bones" and "Virgin in the Ice" is played out again somewhat in the first two chapters of this book. What can not be portrayed in the short Cadfael movies and would make marvelous reading on its own is the inter action between the forces and reasons behind the vacillating positions of Empress Maud and King Stephen. This is also a crucial part of the story; as the loyalties and logistics play a major part in the mystery and people's lives. I will not compare and contrast the people in the story or the differences in the film adaptation as the fun is finding out for your self, all the actions and interaction of people. I will say that none of this would have been possible with out the grace of St. Winifred.

The dustwrapper is complete, with no chips, creases or tears. No fading. Dustwrapper bright. ***190 pages. 205mm x 135mm. ***'It is 1141 AD, four years after the sacred bones of St. Winifred were brought home to the Benedictine Abbey at Shrewsbury, an adventure reported in the first Chronicle of Brother Cadfael, "A Morbid Taste for Bones". Now Cadfael reveals that all was not quite what it seemed in the matter of St Winifred's bones, but he still hopes for a miracle when the fourth anniversary of her translation is celebrated at the Abbey. ***A knight, a supporter of the Empress Maud (who is campaigning against Stephen for the throne of England) has been murdered in Winchester, a distant and apparently unimportant event to the pilgrims who are gathering in Shrewsbury in the hope of miraculous cures at the shrine of St Winifred. ***There are some strange customers among the pilgrims, who have come from all points of the compass. Petty thieves and crooked dice are to be expected at any such gathering, but here are deeper mysteries, in particular a young man who has walked far bare-footed, in great pain, and who has as his companion another young man who appears as his protector. Both claim to have taken vows - but what were these vows? They don't make sense to Cadfael. ***Among those gathered at Shrewsbury is another young man Cadfael is especially pleased to see: and a Welsh girl of exceptional beauty, with her crippled brother. As the story unfolds it becomes evident that the murder of the knight in Winchester is a much less remote affair that it first seemed. ***Ellis Peters' series of novels set in the early twelfth century in Shrewsbury have won mounting recognition and success. Brother Cadfael has been compared with the greatest of fictional detectives, but it is as a man as much as a detective that we delight in his company. Cadfael, detective and monk, here solves the mystery of one tragedy, and prevents another.' (Quote taken from the front flap of the dustwrapper) ***First impression of the true first edition of Ellis Peters' Tenth Chronicle of Brother Cadfael - who has been compared to a medieval Sherlock Holmes - in its original colour-illustrated dustwrapper, in very nice bright condition. ***For all our books, postage is charged at cost, allowing for packaging: any shipping rates indicated on ABE are an average only: we will reduce the P & P charge where appropriate - please contact us for postal rates for heavier books and sets etc. Seller Inventory # 6499x
