    Story
    "Great historical mystery novel"

    As I am a big fan of Karen Maitland I thought I would try this book as she is one of the listed authors
    I really enjoyed it .The story shows how this stone found in ancient times often changed the life (for the worst sometimes) in different peoples throughout history the narration is good and there is factual historical links to bind the story together. It has a good ending too.
    For me this is far superior to the other story that I have read in this series Hill of Bones

    Story
    "Murky mediaeval mess"

    A bit disappointing really. I suppose most of the authors were commisioned to write different parts and while there was a theme, the books did not seem to have a any great continuity. It's a book which as they say , is good in parts Maybe to many cooks spoil the broth.

    Story
    "a series of parts"

    I purchased this because of enjoying the Shardlake stories by CJ Sanson. I found this more a collection of short stories along a single theme and time line and as a result enjoyed some parts more than others as I could reasonably expected given the different styles present. I could have though didn’t skipped a part I didn’t enjoy as the separate stories stand well alone. Overall if you like historic mystery you will enjoy this though some parts more than others.
