Shardlake book Lovers

It is now a series on Disney from tomorrow.

I don’t subscribe but might well do this as I loved the books.

CJ Sansom's obituary was in the Telegraph today - died only a few days ago. So sad - the books are brilliant.

Ooh thanks for jogging my memory, I love the Shardlake books!

I didn't realise there were books (doh!) but I think I've heard bits of stories on R4 from time to time and really enjoyed them.

Sansome wrote so well and evoked a vivid atmosphere of life under Henry VIII. He was apparently working on the next book. I listened to the R4 adaptations and enjoyed them but sadly do not have Disney

Loved reading those books. For me, they created a real feeling of the treachery and danger of living in Henry VIII's London.
Sansome will live on through the readership of his books.

I loved reading the Shardlake books, I think I've read every single one .

I'm annoyed we don't have Disney as I love the books and have only just finished my latest one. Ironically I read about Golden Lane and the apothecaries in Prague the night before walking down Golden Lane and seeing where the apothecaries lived. The Shardlake series is brilliant.

I love the Shardlake books, I think I have read all of them but only have Netflix. Do series ever get shown on other Video on demand . This is Disney so could I ever hope to see it on Netflix one day?

As someone remarked, the Dissolution book taught them more about that period in history than any learning they had done at school. So true, I read it several years ago now and can remember how it brought it all to life and the impact on ordinary people and the process leading up to it.

There are various places (Tesco Clubcard and Ithink Lloyds Bank (?) offering a 3 month subscription to Disney I have read recently, in view of the series.

Looking forward to viewing tonight.

I was gutted to see CJ Sansom had died; I love the Shardlake series. One of the few Tudor historical fiction series that evokes that period in a realistic and immersive but also reasonably historically accurate way. I’ll be watching the series, I saw the main actor play Richard III and he was fantastic so I have high hopes.

I loved Dissolution the most but I could not wait for each one to arrive on the shelves .
Winter in Madrid is a special book .

I didn’t realise he’d died. I loved many of his books. I still have Tomblands to read.
