Aha! So my little grey cells were correct! I'm still reading a Shardlake book by CJSansom. Tudor goings-on!

For anyone enjoying #Shardlake on ITV, please think about reading the source novels by the late, great #CJSansom. They really are like stepping back in time, with a richness of character, plot, and place that will keep you hooked from the first page.

Even if historical novels aren’t your usual oat milk latte, the storytelling and prose will have you hooked as Shardlake investigates a grisly murder in a monastery at the time of Cromwell and Henry XIII. This is a terrific detective novel pure and simple #CJSansom #Dissolution

Day 16 #HistFicMay Do you prefer books set in the time you write about, or others? I have an eclectic taste in my reading. Anything appeals from #LionelDavidson, #CJSansom, #MarkTurnbull, #EleanorSwiftHook to #MickeySpillane - widely different writing styles & periods in time -

We were saddened to learn of the death of author C.J. Sansom recently. Best known for his Matthew Shardlake series, his novels remain very popular with our members. Visit or get in touch if you would like to borrow any of his books. #CJSansom #HistoricalFiction #CrimeFiction

I’m sad Chris Sansom has died. @YorkTheatre he let us transform ‘Sovereign’ into a play by Mike Kenny, dir. by @JulietForster02, @MingyuLin & @johnrwilkinson1.
He didn’t need to let us adapt his book.
But he was “a good man in trying times”.

His books will still be enjoyed and discussed for many many years yet

So sad. My favourite author by far and his Shardlake novels are just exquisite. A wonderful legacy. #cjsansom

Very sad that we have now lost both those Holbeins of literature, who so brilliantly evoked the Tudor world. #HilaryMantel #CJSansom RIP. Your works live on.

Very sad to learn that #CJSansom has died. His historical novels set in the court of Henry VIII, and the unforgettable lawyer/sleuth #Shardlake, made every one of his books a much anticipated event. Gone too soon, RIP.

Sad news of the passing of British writer, #CJSansom (1952-2024).
I read one of his books #WinterInMadrid towards the end of last year and thoroughly enjoyed it.
