A Morbid Taste for Bones by Ellis Peters

2.75

All the right pieces were in place for this to be an enjoyable mystery with a fun setting, but somehow I just found myself very bored by this story. I didn’t care a whit about anyone but Cadfael, and I was lukewarm even to him. Maybe the style was just a bit too plain, or the plot a bit too repetitive and conventional. Oh well, the ending, at least, was fairly original. I wouldn’t be against giving this series a second chance some time.
