The reason to read this is mostly because Crispin is a highly literate writer. The story takes place in a small town with the local cathedral playing a big part, so nice scenes of English village (and pub) life. And I was surprised by the ending, but it crosses over to the ludicrous at the end, and is one of the weaker Gervase Fen books.
