One Corpse Too Many Audiobook

" WOW!!! this book is an amazing murder mystery...You never would have guessed who was the murderer... "

" Second in the series, but one of the best and really the start of the relationships between the main characters. "

" I listened to the audio version and it was wonderful. I love this series. Think they should be published anew! "

" A memorable medieval tale that I truthfully found to be much more a well-crafted story of honor, life and friendship than a traditional murder mystery. Cadfael is a character for the ages. "

" The second Brother Cadfael novel, and this time set fully in Shrewsbury, with more characters introduced that are to become familiar over the rest of the series. While the title (rightly) suggests murder and the Cadfael novels are generally billed as mediaeval whodunnits, this is much more of a mediaeval adventure, with bits of love story and detective novel thrown in. As such it lacks a bit of focus, with the author apparently returning to the murder at the end, but it is still a good read. "

" Ellis Peters has the most beautiful turn of phrase. And haveing seen the TV Cadfael, Derek Jacoby (sp?), who was more than perfect, i am reading all i have for a second time. and then i'll buy the ones i don't have to read, and read again, and again. . . "

" I'd forgotten just how much I enjoy reading the Brother Cadfael books until I introduced them to my daughter. I picked up ONE CORPSE TOO MANY and could not put it down. I'll have to re-read the entire series now. "

" I've read this before but have no memory of the plot, so I thought I'd read it again. "

" Excellent story, great narration. It doesn't get much better than this. "

" These thin mysteries look fairly unsubstantial but they have some really enjoyable and descriptive writing in them, drawing you into the landscape and characters. Looking forward to the next one, and glad for the recommendation for this series (although I can remember from whom)! "

" Truly, it was one corpse too many. "

" I really enjoy Brother Cadfael, as a monk, crime-solver, and man of the world, and I am delighted that the women in these books are not the damsels-in-distress type but can save both themselves and their men. I look forward to reading more. "

" A bit predictable but the writing style makes up for any qualms I may have had about the 'mystery'. "

" The first of the Brother Cadfael books I read. He immediately became the ideal confidant. The one to heal the body and mind. "

" Always a good choice if you like the genre. "

" Brother Cadfael, the monk in Shrewsbury, butts heads with a young man seeking favor with King Stephen. They have a battle of wits as they solve murders and help a couple escape to France. Very good story and gives a nice picture of England of 1200's. Brother Cadfael is quite likeable. "

" A good Bro. Caedfel book. Her second. Less religion than the first one, which works better for her. I don't know that I would read all of them, but she is as good as any of the mystery writers. "

" Ellis Peters writes a very interesting book! The time period is interesting, as is the setting. The characters are excellent, well-drawn and fun. You want to have known Brother Cadfael! I'm looking forward to reading another of the books in this series by Ellis Peters. "

" Excellent as are all the Caedfael books. Well worth reading if you like a novel set in a historical era. This describes the war between King Stephen and Maud very nicely as a backdrop to the mystery. "

" As I continue to read further Brother Cadfael mysteries, this one remains my favorite and the one that hooked me. The premise of the mystery is clever and unique, and the story contains several twists and turns. Hugh Beringar is an ambiguous foe, and I really enjoyed that. "

" Truly, it was one corpse too many. "

" I dont usually go for mysteries too much but this series is a pleasure to read. "

" It took me a while to get into this book, but once I did it kept my attention. I really like the interaction between Cadfael and Hugh Beringar,and the action and suspense scenes are well-written. "

" I liked this, but the plot was particularly far-fetched. Why would these warlords make a fuss about someone killed during a raid on a town? "

" My favorie Cadfael book that I've read, but it's been a while so I couldn't say why exactly. "

" I listened to the audio version and it was wonderful. I love this series. Think they should be published anew! "

" Excellent as are all the Caedfael books. Well worth reading if you like a novel set in a historical era. This describes the war between King Stephen and Maud very nicely as a backdrop to the mystery. "

" My dad thinks Brother Cadfael is too much of a "libertine" to be a realistic Dark Ages Benedictine brother. Probably Tony Shalhoub is a Monk more to his liking. "

" This is the second installment in the Brother Cadfael series, and is just as interesting as the first, probably more so for the introduction of Hugh Berengar. Highly recommended. "

" Another fun Brother Cadfael mystery--he seemed a bit more holy this time. "
