The Raven in the Foregate by Ellis Peters

(read aloud)

Another warm, engaging morality tale ringing with authenticity and good graces: morality without moralism, that is, law with mercy. Cadfael is an engaging presence without pretense. The plot is good and satisfying. We enjoyed this a great deal. The slow-developing plot was "a feature, not a bug."
