1.		Sovereign (Matthew Shardlake 3) from Pan Books Price: £4.69 Customer Review: Having read the previous Matthew Shardlake novels I was eager to read this one. I wasn't disappointed - it is easily the best one yet. What I liked most was the brilliant evocation of the cruelty of Tudor England. The religious fanaticism has been done before, as has the treachery and power... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

2.		The Girl of His Dreams from William Heinemann Ltd Price: £10.14 Customer Review: Having waited keenly for the next 'Guido Brunetti' to appear, I read the dust cover summary and made a start soon after publication. 90 pages in, I was wondering if the publishers had made some sort of printing error - the dead girl had not yet been found in the Canal and the religious fraudster... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

3.		The Lady Elizabeth from Hutchinson Price: £7.14 Customer Review: If you are interest in Elizabeth I in any capacity, then this is the book for you. I stumbled across Alison Weir's book on Lady Jane Grey, and was transfixed, so was delighted when The Lady Elizabeth came out. The book takes you through Elizabeth's childhood, her teenage years, until the moment that... more info	Customer Rating: 3.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

4.		The Alehouse Murders (Templar Knight Mysteries) (Templar Knight Mysteries) from Berkley Price: £5.59 Customer Review: There seems to be no shortage of medieval/historical mysteries. Thank goodness, as it's quite a popular genre and one that has merits of its own. "The Alehouse Murders" is a first novel by Maureen Ash and features Bascot de Marins, recently returned from the Crusades with the Templar Knights.... more info	Customer Rating: 4.5 / 5.0 Click here for more information

5.		The Other Queen from HarperCollins Publishers Ltd Price: £9.49 Customer Review: "The Other Queen" is about Mary, Queen of Scots' imprisonment in England, focusing on the early years of her imprisonment. The story alternates between three perspectives: George Talbot, Earl of Shrewsbury and his wife, Bess of Hardwick who were charged with responsibility for the Queen; the third... more info	Customer Rating: 3.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

6.		The Triumph of Caesar (Roma Sub Rosa) from Constable Price: £8.57 Customer Review: Steven Saylor returns to his Gordianus series and the result, although welcome is something of a disappointment. A somewhat slender and short story offers only transitory pleasures. But Saylor is a master storyteller and sage on all things Roman, so a sub par Roma Sub Rosa novel still eclipses his... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

7.		The Manor of Death (Crowner John Mystery) from Pocket Books Price: £5.24 Customer Review: I will be concise. If Bernard Knight wrote it, I read it and that includes his non-fiction. One is never disappointed with a "Crowner John" read and one knows that he is "right on" with his history. I look at Knight and Jecks as a team so to speak. You expect and receive excellence in writing more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

8.		A Cure for All Diseases from HarperCollins Publishers Ltd Price: £8.99 Customer Review: After the disappointment of "The Death of Dalziel" this one, for me, is a real return to form! It has a strange style, with parts of the story told in normal narrative, parts as emails from one of the major characters, and parts as the spoken thoughts of Andy Dalziel. I agree with one of the other... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

9.		Rapscallion from HarperCollins Publishers Ltd Price: £8.57 Customer Review: James McGee is the pseudonym of Glen Moy, who was born into an army family in 1950. He was educated in Gibraltar, Germany and Belfast, giving him a love of travel, which is evident in his meticulous, vivid portraits of diverse people and places. His varied career has included banking, bookselling,... more info	Customer Rating: 5.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information

10.		Death of A Squire (Templar Knight Mysteries) (Templar Knight Mysteries) from Berkley Publishing Corporation Price: £4.79 Customer Review: Maureen Ash was a new author to me until I read the Alehouse Murders and I believe that was in fact her first book. As I always like to try new writers when I can find them I was happy to read the book and I found it good, light and interesting reading. The type of book where you do not have... more info	Customer Rating: 4.0 / 5.0 Click here for more information
