The Ring of Fire: 1636: The Devil's Opera (Series #13) (Paperback)

from jamespurcell

1636 Events from a different viewpoint, Two disparate plots woven nicely into a quite good story.

A very enjoyable entry. I particularly like the way they keep the strands interwoven from the main story while revealing the lives of other characters. I would like to see what becomes of Simon Bayer.

from JessMahler

A good read that built on the stories from 1635: Music and Murder but can also be enjoyed as a standalone. Has a lot more religious focus/influence than most of the series, I'm assuming that's David Carrico's influence. Reads a bit "messagey" in places, but so much so as to be off-putting. Charac...

Another book in the Ring of Fire series. Gustuv is returning to the capitol after his long illness....the primary story is a murder, mystery with some political intrique. A good fun read.

from Janientrelac

This is really 2 novellas combined with one tiny common event, the common events were very forced and could have been left out. I liked both story lines, the music more than the crime, but it would read better as alternative chapters rather than jumping back and forth for no reason.
