These books have been background noise to my life for so long but I never picked them up until now. Honestly, what a delight. A unique setting (Until you read Name of the Rose), interesting characters, a different kind of mystery.
I played Pentiment while reading this, which added depth and Easter eggs to the experience of both. Redwall meets Agatha Christie.
