A pleasant medieval story, but not much of a murder mystery
4 étoiles
I may have spent far, far too much time down the old-fashioned murder mystery rabbit hole when my kids were little, absorbing Agatha Christie, Dorothy Sayers, and Ngaio Marsh, but this didn't really seem to resemble a murder mystery as I'd recognize it. A pleasant enough medieval story, but the murder seemed a bit incidental (and yes, I realize it does sound a bit weird to complain about a story being insufficiently murder-ey, but it feels a bit like a failure of advertising :) ).
