A review by metta
The Nebuly Coat by John Meade Falkner, Mark Valentine

3.0

Three stars for what felt like a promising, good tale (I was kept wondering what would happen) and for interesting characters, BUT, there were at times too much waxing on architectural details (or organ music) and some sentences were so unnecessarily lengthy (I'm guilty of that, too) and unclear that I had to re-read them.
Moonfleet was SO much better.
Favorite lines:
"The cloud had returned to Westray's face. If he had been the hero of a novel his brow would have been black as night; as it was he only looked rather sulky."
