The Heretics of De'ath
(2013)(The first book in the Chronicles of Brother Hermitage series)
A novel by Howard of Warwick
Medieval mystery for people who laugh starts here....
England's most famous date 1066: At the monastery of De'Ath's Dingle, during a completely pointless theological debate, there is a mysterious death. Routine business for the average investigative medieval monk.
Unfortunately this isn’t a tale of average monks.
Anyone who would put the idiot Brother Simon in charge of a murder investigation is either one chant short of a plainsong or is up to something. When Brother Hermitage, innocent in every way, including bystanding, is lined up for execution, he begins to wonder if something might be going on.
Perhaps his new companion Wat, weaver of pornographic tapestry, can figure out what it is. Before it's too late.
If you are a lover of the historical detective genre, if you have a deep respect for the worlds created, don’t read this book. It’ll only upset you.
Now available in a massive box set with The Garderobe of Death and The Tapestry of Death; for those with a lever-arch Kindle.
People have commented on the whole sorry business:
5* Such a good writer, it's a whole new slant on medieval mystery. The truth is out there, sort of!
Always makes me laugh, love these books, love this author. More please as soon as possible, just keep writing...
5* Like Cadfael meets Clouseau.
5* The usual mayhem, confusion, murder and laughs!
5* Always makes me laugh, love these books, love this author.
1* Stupid!
Be warned, there are now 23 Chronicles of Brother Hermitage.
