Catherine and a few friends end up at the Council of Reims to help Astrolabe fight an accusation of both murder and heresy. This was another fascinating entry in this historical series. Newman is a master of creating characters you believe in and weaving historical details (especially religious beliefs and their effects) into fairly plausible mystery plots.

Much better. This book is as good as the first three. A little different focus, from Jewish/Christian to heresy in the church and more about Astrolabe instead of all the focus on the children and sister.
Good history and engaging story.

Much better than the previous book, but I feel that there isn't anything left to say about these characters. I no longer have any curiosity about their lives, with the possible exception of Margaret.
