A couple of weeks ago, we met up to discuss our seventieth book - Dissolution by CJ Sansom.
We met in Manchester at Mr Thomas's Chop House on Cross St, followed by an excellent meal in a posh pizzeria (can't remember the name) - thankfully Simon was paying!
I QUITE enjoyed the book, though only gave it a 6 out of 10. It is set during the time of Henry VIIIth, and is centred around a monastery that Thomas Cromwell is intent on dissolving (is that the correct term?) where a brutal murder has taken place.
It is apparently the first in a series of Shardlake books - one of Cromwell's commissioners. I wouldn't be at all surprised to see it being adapted for the small screens at some time, but I will not be rushing to read the sequel.
