mark reviewed Virgin in the Ice (Brother Cadfael Mysteries) by Edith Pargeter (Brother Cadfael (6))
Terrific Cadfael
4 stars
I had read I think the first two Cadfael books a while ago, and read this on the suggestion that it was properly Christmas-y. If you would like to read about a gruff old monk who solves mysteries while gently guiding young lovers together, well, good news, it does what it says on the ton, and includes the occasional paragraph about faith or friendship that absolutely stops you in your tracks with beauty and insight.
