katenetz's review against another edition

It was funny to read about the players not playing, but I really enjoyed the peak into a medieval hospital. It was an interesting mystery and the new characters were fun and lively.

Joliffe arrives back in England to find out that one of his fellow players in in the hospital. Basset's arthritis has got him crippled, but he's nearly recovered. Joliffe and the rest of the actors stay and find work until they can travel again. When someone is murdered, Joliffe uses his skills to spot the killer and keep his friends out of trouble.
My favorite in the series so far. I liked reading about medieval medicine and how the hospital was run.

This one felt very much as if the stories to tell about players were wearing a little thin. As always, the detail is excellent and the stories entertaining, but I wish more of this had gone in the political intrigue direction.

It was a brisk, easy read and I like the character of Joliffe, but this one felt a bit more scant and detached than previous ones and I missed the players as players.
