( ) This is a collection of short stories with herbalist China Bayles and crew as protagonists. While the China Bayles series of mysteries is one of my favorites, I didn't care for this book at all. The stories were too short, there was no time to develop a mystery at all, the solutions were abrupt, and the entire volume was chopped up with sidebars on nearly every page with little known facts and folklore about whatever herbs were mentioned on that page, and recipes for each and every food dish mentioned in the stories. Many of these took up an entire page and all of them, without fail, served to distract me from the story at hand. Horrible format, IMO. What a waste of time! I finished it, so I'll give it a 1, but Ms. Albert is capable of so much better than this, I'm embarrassed for her. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
