Themis-Athena's Garden of Books
Themis-Athena's Garden of Books rated it 5 years ago
So, on the plus side, despite serious RL interventions progress on my card is well under way, with four squares (including the centre / free / raven square) marked "called and read"; three of these in a row -- plus reading for the remaining two squares of that row also in progress -- and several mor...

I was pleasantly surprised to discover this series was still going. I had heard book #12 was suppose to have been the last. Not only was a thirteenth novel released last year but book #14 is due to be published at some point this year.   I wasn't feeling as excited for book #14 by the time I reached...

It got an extra half point for potential. There were some rough bits in it but overall it was a good read, or rather a good listen.

A nice bounce back after the previous novel was a bit of a flop.

The plot seemed a bit far fetched and overly modern.

Maybe I waited too long between books but I felt like I missed something the whole time I was reading. Example: Apparently there is this letter received by Prioress Eleanor from her aunt Sister Beatrice that exposes Brother Thomas as a spy. The reader is never told when this letter arrived or reall...

I adored Priscilla Royal's first Medieval Mystery, Wine of Violence. The multifaceted creation of Prioress Eleanor and the monk, Thomas, was captivating and well written. Therefore, I was all the more disappointed when this installment fell flat.In Tyrant of the Mind, Eleanor and Thomas are back, bu...
