The Tapestry of Death and Beyond

The Garderobe of Death is out in the world and doing well. Very favourable comments have been received for which I am most grateful. www.amazon.co.uk/Garderobe-Chronicles-Brother-Hermitage-ebook/dp/B00A2ATM98/

As readers will know the book leaves Hermitage and Wat at the start of yet another investigation. The subsequent tale nears completion and is entitled The Tapestry of Death - I think I see a bit a pattern emerging.

This delves into the world of Wat the weaver and his highly dubious tapestries. I fear it is a world best not delved into at all but the truth must out. (Well I suppose strictly speaking it needn't but I think it best if it does.)

The problem I see in The Tapestry of Death is that nearly everyone is corrupted in one way or another. Whether this is because they started corrupt and then found The Tapestry, or they found The Tapestry and thus became corrupt is a good question. One which the book seeks to answer in no way whatsoever.

I am only gratified that Hermitage seems to be as shocked by everything as I am.

As this new book draws to a conclusion I have uncovered a remarkable piece of new material. If it is verified it will revolutionise our consideration of the early Norman period of English history. If it isn't verified it should still make a good story. So far, it does not actually involve Hermitage or Wat but they might turn up yet...
