Review
"The tale is enthralling. . . . Sansom describes 16th-century events in the crisply realistic style of someone watching them transpire right outside his window. . . . Don't believe those tapestries of pretty lords and ladies happily hunting unicorns: The Middle Ages were murder."―Marilyn Stasio, New York Times Book Review"Longtime readers of this superb series will know what to expect on every level: sharply drawn characters, particularly Shardlake himself, who has grown into one of the most well-textured leading characters in the entire genre... Tombland is the latest in what is easily one of the best ongoing mystery series currently being published."―Christian Science Monitor"Outstanding . . . Non-mystery readers interested in Tudor England will be equally enthralled."―Publishers Weekly (starred review)PRAISE FOR THE SHARDLAKE SERIES"Don't expect to put Shardlake down until you've seen it through to the apocalyptic finale."―The Guardian"With his customary grace, Sansom places Shardlake's rousing fictional adventures into an authentic historical context."―Marilyn Stasio, The New York Times

First, there seems to be some confusion about the release dates of this book. I have it on Kindle (October, 2018) so no worries there. Perhaps I ought to have waited for the hardback to join all the other C.J. Sansoms on my shelves - because this is a keeper!Set in 1549, when Henry VIII's young son, Edward, has inherited his father's throne, it deals with an uprising against Edward's guardian, the Lord Protector Somerset. The rebellion is led by two brothers from Norfolk called Kett and the story centres on the city of Norwich, which at that time was England's second biggest.As with all of Sansom's Tudor novels it 'stars' the hunchback lawyer, Matthew Shardlake, and his sidekick, Jack Barak. They're sent by Edward's older step-sister, the Lady Elizabeth (later Queen Elizabeth I) to investigate a gruesome murder near Norwich when Kett's Rebelion erupts.In short, of all the Shardlake novels, I think this is Sansom's finest creation. I studied Tudor history at a school founded and named after Edward VI, just across the road from where Sansom himself studied at Birmingham University, but had no inkling of the extent of the rebellions of 1549. (We were founded in 1552.)But, more important, Shardlake as a character continues to develop and the plotting is truly excellent. It's a great yarn filled with superb historical insights and detail. Highly recommended. (And with a very intelligent, learned, yet easily readable coda reviewing the historical sources with Sansom's own well-informed comments.) Oh - did I say Highly recommended?
I'm not going to lie. This was a monster of a book even for me. A tomb of a read ironically at over 840 pages. But do you know what? It's CJ Sansom and the time passed quickly as I was sucked into a medieval world of intrigue and murder.There’s a lot to enjoy here, and not just with the plot. Around you as you read, there are battles, conspiracies and talk of royal intrigue. Shardlake has a murder to solve and then another body turns up...The rebellions of 1549 during the reign of Edward VI are what drives the novel and the events of Tombland in historical Norwich. I had no idea this was a real place but I’ve worn out Google Maps finding out as much as I can about it. I know it so well now - well the 1549 version. How exciting it will be to see the modern day version and Sansom’s version at the same time.There’s a keen sense of chaos in the novel but when you have a king who is only eleven years old...the country is in turmoil and there is religious turmoil as well. No one seems safe. Even everyday life is getting harder as the financial state of the country is in free fall. You get a keen sense of all of this in the novel and it’s like wandering down the streets yourself, the sights, sounds and godforsaken smells all the more real as you walk on.Shardlake works as a lawyer for Henry’s VIII’s daughter Elizabeth and the Boleyn name comes back into play when a distant relative from Norfolk is found murdered. Of course, Shardlake is the man for the job, but this is unlike anything he has been asked to do before.It’s a very visual novel - from the chaotic market scenes to the cumbersome journeys the characters have to undertake to get to Tombland, the inns they stop at on the way and the cells of Norwich castle....it’s a world of medieval wonder and mixes historical fact, peasant revolt and the true meaning of loyalty.And within all of this, a strong plot worthy of the Shardlake name. Read it slowly, take it in and allow yourself to be submerged into a historically fascinating world.
Our protagonist has survived being on the nose in the court of Henry VIII and is now living through the reigns of Henk's children. CJ Sansom continues to find little-known episodes in Tudor history to both delight and enlighten readers and Shardlake continues to be a sympathetic voice in an era of almost unremitting horrors.
Another gripping and convincing historical novel that I could not bear to put down. I can hardly wait for the next one.
A master story teller and another great adventure with M. Shardlake. I cannot put this one down, every page a winner. Revelation, Sovereign, Dark Fire, Dissolution, Heartstone and Lamentation were all so exciting and marvelous in the extreme. Sansom captures you from the very start of each brilliant book and takes you through the Tudor times like never before then grips you into a masterclass world of suspense. Also told with a great sense of humor with the occasional social commentary that only a true master of literature can perform. Thank you C.J.
