The Dark Monk by Oliver Potzsch

This is another wonderful book. I really enjoyed it. It was a fast paced book with a great plot. I found that it pulled me in and made me a part of the story. It made me feel like the story could be a part of me if I let it. In the Dark Monk a priest is killed because he found a Templar’s grave and riddles. This leads to the doctor going to see the priest and calling for the hangman. The hangman finds that the priest has been murdered. The rest of the book goes into how the doctor solves the Templar’s riddles, while the hangman looks for the robbers who have been ambushing and killing the merchants of the area. To say much more would give away too much of the end of the book. It was such a good book I would love to see more from this author. I have enjoyed his work and would love to see more. This book will pull you in and make you a part of the story. I am a BzzAgent and got the e-book for free.

The Hangman's daughter by Oliver Potzsch

I loved this book. I found it to be very interesting. It pulled me in and held my attention. I love a book with a good plot and fast moving story. This book had it all. The Hangman’s Daughter was a great book because it had a great plot. There are children being murdered. Each child who dies had a mark on their back. The midwife of the town is blamed for the deaths of the children. She is being called a witch and held in prison. The local doctor, the hangman and some of the elders of the town are trying to find the truth behind the deaths. The hangman’s daughter falls in love with the doctor. To tell more would give away the end of the book and I would hate to do that. I found that characters to be real. They made me feel like a part of the story. This made the book even more fun to read. I think that this book is a must read for anyone who loves a good book. I am a BzzAgent and got the e-book for free to read.
