A prequel for the Brother Cadfael series, these short stories explain a bit about how Cadfael went from a Crusader to a monk, along with solving a few mysteries and murders along the way.
I like the historical aspect of the Cadfael series. They are an easy way to learn more about post-Crusade Britain and the feudal system. Cadfael is also known for his herbal remedies, which is a good reason to always have him wandering where monks are usually scarce.
