Any additional comments?

This is another great tale in the Simon Serrailler series. It ties up loose ends from the previous one. The main characters in the series are all a bit 'posh' and mostly religious, which is fine. There was a little too much religious worship in this one for me though. Hence, the loss of one star.

Good stuff!
