Extra Book 5: The Haunting of Torre Abbey
So here ’s another extra book I read for the category “Book set in an Abbey, Cloister, etc.” Snort! I found this title at work, which conveniently is the library. I was desperate for a story for the category as I did not wish to listen to fifty-four hours of The Mists of Avalon . The Redwall audio ended up being a group performance of the work, rather than one person reading it. I was worried I’d lose some of the tale if I didn’t get a “full” version. The catalog thankfully directed me several books with an abbey as the setting. Once I had the print version of Redwall , I sent back the other books. Except for this one. I ’m a Sherlock junkie. I love the old books and the new show with Mr. Cumberbatch. (I could watch him read the dictionary and be entertained.) The Complete Sherlock Holmes Vol. 1 took me years to read, and I loved it. Volume Two is in the wings for someday. I love the logic, the puzzles, the characterization. But I have been hesitant to read retelling
