5* Hilarious
5* Like Cadfael meets Clouseau
5* Another hysterical masterpiece.
Very good indeed, brilliant. BBC
Not content with being King William's investigator of murder, and he is not content with that at all, Brother Hermitage is now having his trouble delivered. The floods of Derby wash up something very specific and there is only one monk for the job.
But who would do that to an abbot? And where did he come from? Not only will Hermitage have to discover a killer, he'll also have to find a monastery where there is none.
Perhaps some detestable monks will be able to throw light on the situation.
Could the Norman obsession with record-keeping turn out to be useful?
At least this murder is only a short walk away, and Hermitage, Wat and Cwen traipse through a soggy countryside to discover more about monks and monasteries than the weavers ever wanted to know.
The 30th - yes 30th Chronicle of Brother Hermitage continues the theme of a medieval detective monk who really shouldn’t be
Howard of Warwick: the world's best-selling author of medieval crime comedy.
And now an official No. 1 Best Seller around the globe...

Unfortunately, Howard has written his name in some of them....
"Very, very good indeed... brilliant" BBC Coventry and Warwick.
Over 150,000 have graced his bookstall and more than 1,000 reviewers say things like "hilarious", "laugh out loud funny" and "stupid".
Howard is simply a humble chronicler with the blind luck to stumble upon the Brother Hermitage manuscripts. This young monk is clearly the archetype for many characters down the centuries but somehow, over the intervening years, those later figures started to know what they were doing. Brother Hermitage is more like Cadfael meets Clouseau.
Howard's work has been heard, seen and read, most of it accompanied by laughter and some of it by money. His peers have even seen fit to recognise his unworthy efforts with a prize for making up stories.
There are so many tales that they're starting to get out of hand: 31 Chronicles of Brother Hermitage, 3 historical "re-creations", a little something for Christmas and even some free short stories.
There is a dedicated web page www.Howardofwarwick.com. Dedicated to what, is a good question.
