Libro increible. Ambiente del que me gusta monastico. Se nota la oscuridad en cuanto lo lees. Se pasa un poco con las descripciones y a veces con el tema de las herejias. Sino, seria un 5 porque a nivel misterio y asesinato es perfecto

Hilariously compelling for such an absurd plot/milieu, learned a lot of ecclesiastical history and mostly enjoyed it although the mystery ended up being disappointing and the epiphany underwhelming

Omläsning från 80-talet. Svårt att se varför boken blev sådan framgång - misstänker att ganska många som köpte den under hajpen blev besvikna. Den som tänkte att man köpte en deckare fick till övervägande del något helt annat. Långa religiösa resonemang som till exempel huruvida Jesus skrattade eller inte, och evighetslånga diskussioner som kätteri.
Man får säker mer ut av boken om man är religiöst eller historisk intresserad men för en normalt allmänbildad person blir det torrt. Men man kan också se den som en hyllning till kunskapstörst och läsande.
