Tombland by C.J. Sansom

3.0

Further adventures of Matthew Shardlake during the Norwich rebellion 1549. I enjoyed this book, although it was rather long. The historical detail was admirable, though the essay at the end was a bit too much. I was also happy not to have to read/listen to more haughty and arrogant utterances from Sir Richard Rich, but found the Boleyn twins just as irritating. I suppose that's the reaction the author would have wanted. Jack Barack was in true form, though and I found myself growing more fond of Nicholas Overton.

I love, love the narration by Steven Crossley, though. I think my whole enjoyment of the Shardlake novels has been increased by his performances throughout the series.

I wonder if we will have more of Matthew Shardlake's adventures in the future.
