An Excellent Mystery is the eleventh of Ellis Peters’ Brother Cadfael novels and the first in the series that I’ve read for a while. It’s also the first one that I can’t say I actually like. Of course, saying why would require explaining the whole story; if you’ve read it, you’ll understand what I mean when I say that the plot turns on a mindset that I find just weird, somewhat uncomfortably so.
(Oh, and the title is actually not generic.)
Just as long as the next volume isn’t entitled “Brother Cadfael’s Bogus Journey”, I suppose it’s okay.
Whoa.
