I'm actually enjoying this so far

This starts with a "This book is from the past and the past was sometimes racist/sexist etc" which I never saw in a BCLC. Is this a new thing or does this mean this will be even worse than Sargent "the tits of this female corpse are ugly" Cuff books or that other one with the anti-Semitic rant that lasted an entire chapter?

This does absolutely nothing for me

Is he aware that you can give characters other obstacles than "everyone is as unhelpful as possible"?

There's something hilarious about a crime novel with a killer so gruesome that some Scandinoir writers would go: you're overdoing it mate, that however doesn't even use the word shit

They couldn't have written a more textbook case of fridging a female character in the 80s

Everyone in this sub-series is so annoying

These books would be so amazing if Maresca put half of the effort he puts in world building into creating the characters and the plot

"Consider the frightful possibility -an England where men and women will die, will die quite calmly, without the assistance of the Church!"
GASP!

Everything happens so much (derogatory)

Does my English suck or does Maresca keep inventing new slang?

Swineherd: I was born in a rich family but got abducted and sold into slavery
Odysseus: yeah but your owner is nice. My life is much worse

Dude. Read the room

This is not the light read I expected. It's still good but it's not Cadfael

Oh this dude does not have a high opinion of women (except Agatha)

*starts listening and goes on a one hour walk*
*still not finished with the introduction* (I think that goes on for another...two hours)

Can't wait to see what new ways Berkeley is coming up with to be misogynistic

"You go to the devil."
"Thank you but no "
I love Barker.

"Speaking of godless secularism; Voltaire was a regular at Sanssouci"

I want to grab this book gently by the shoulders and whisper in its ear "pick fewer battles"

Tumblr will love this

Two unstable kids in this family? What could possibly go wrong?

What the actual fuck? (derogatory)

I want to like this child but he's making it really hard

This child is very obnoxious

These are a lot of words

I love this

Considering the number of regency heroines who lament their lack of talent for the most basic sewing, I wonder how there are any pieces of clothing or needlework that aren't falling apart or have the most crooked seams.

Diversity win: gays can be war criminals too

"She didn't know what she'd done to suddenly deserve all these talkative people"

I am not a genetically modified brainwashed killing machine but I feel Kyr

Who could the code name "Bear" mean?
Could it possibly be the guy called Medvedev? 😱😱😱
Look mom. My Russian degree has some use 😭😭
