THE COMPLETE CADFAEL CHRONICLES: 21 ebooks in one
Discover Brother Cadfael: Former soldier. Benedictine monk. Amateur sleuth.
Cadfael ap Meilyr ap Dafydd (known simply as Brother Cadfael) is a Welsh monk, herbalist and apothecary of Shrewsbury Abbey. He entered the Benedictine order in 1120 after sixteen years in the armies of Britain and Normandy. As a soldier and sea captain he fought in the Holy Land, serving at the fall of Antioch and the storming of Jerusalem. As a young man, he was betrothed to Richildis Gurney, but never married. He has an illegitimate son, Olivier de Bretagne, by the Saracen widow Mariam of Antioch.
Now the Abbey herbalist – a healer and skilled observer of human nature – Brother Cadfael, is called upon to use his more worldly talents in pursuit of justice.
The Cadfael Chronicles, by Diamond Dagger winner Ellis Peters, follow the medieval mysteries of one of classic crime's most unique detectives.
