"When historical fiction clicks, there's nothing more gripping . . . and C.J. Sansom's fantastic Sovereign left me positively baying for more. It's that good. . . . Rebellion, plots, torture, fanaticism, a murder mystery and a real historical scandal come alive in this deeply satisfying novel." -Deirdre Donahue, USA Today "Authors of the caliber of P. D. James, Ruth Rendell, Ian Rankin, and Minette Walters remain rare. C. J. Sansom's Sovereign . . . deserves as wide a readership as any of the above. . . . It's deeper, stronger, and subtler than most novels in the genre." - The Sunday Independent (London), "When historical fiction clicks, there's nothing more gripping . . . and C.J.

Condition of the hardback book was labled as "very good". When I received the book and opened it up, the binding broke. When I asked for a refund, he said he could only refund me 4$. His reasoning sounded like a scam. The dollars have not yet been refunded.

Well-written but gloomy
Archbishop Cranmer offers Shardlake a lucrative royal commission to York, but ties it to a private assignment to look after the welfare of an arrested conspirator. As Shardlake and Barak try desperately to avoid political quagmires, Shardlake finds a murdered man and discovers, then loses, papers proving the man was part of a antiroyal conspiracy. As a political noose tightens around his neck, he encounters several physical assassination attempts as well. Very slow read, but not because of tedium. It’s simply a rich story as well as a large book (almost 600 pages). I ordinarily get through a book in a day or two, but this one took about a week. This is not a good choice if you are looking for something to read a page or two at a time, you’ll lose some of the story threads. As in the ...

This is not a good choice if you are looking for something to read a page or two at a time, you’ll lose some of the story threads. As in the previous Shardlake books, Sansom masterfully conveys the dancing-on-eggshells atmosphere of Henry VIII’s court, where the head of last year’s royal favorite may be decorating a traitor’s pike this year, and a flicker of the eyes at the wrong time can place anyone under suspicion. And that is why I won’t be reading any more in this series. It’s just too hard on poor Shardlake, a political thriller (which I generally don’t like) more than a murder mystery. The “now I knew it all” near the end, which I absolutely despise as not playing fair with the reader, simply iced the cake (even though the author only kept it a secret for a few pages). I had no hesitation in recommending this series as well-written and superbly conveying the feel as well as the facts of the age (before the “now I knew it all”), but it’s too gloomy for my taste.

Fascinating Mystery
The stories here are mysteries set in the time of England's Henry VIII. I read these for the basic mystery but I enjoy the flavor of the circa 1540 setting. What a terrible and depressing time to live in! If you need a pick me up, read one of these, enjoy the mystery in the story, experience a bit through the written word what the conditions were like back 'then', and check to see if your teeth are still in place and your head is still on your shoulders. It makes me glad that we have nothing to do with a Monarchy. :)The stories here are mysteries set in the time of England's Henry VIII.

Historical fiction at its best
Very good historical fiction. Not formulaic, at about 500 pages will last a week reading at a moderate pace. I really enjoyed it and plan on reading the whole series.
