The Brother Cadfael Mysteries

The Brother Cadfael Mysteries

Though Cadfael is already a monk by the time the first novel introduces him, he has already had an active career before taking the tonsure. He spent the first fifty or so years of his life as a soldier, much of it in the Crusades to the Holy Land, so his experience of violence and bloodshed is not simply confined to the cowl-and-dagger intrigues of Shrewsbury. He has also experienced the company of women more than his brother monks, and even fathered a son by one of his past lovers, who turns up expectedly during one of his cases. Despite their hero’s rather violent and roistering past, the Cadfael books are traditional “cosy” whodunnits, which tend to take a gentle and optimistic look at human nature.
