Just remember those nuns were genuine anyway. Really enjoyed this story. I did know anything about the electoral process in the Vatican to choose a new Pope.

So I was really intrigued by this detail. But it became rather too much of a drama to sustain credibility. And the ending was the anti- climax, not the climax. A brilliant book well written, meticulously researched and compelling to read.

A gentle story with a powerful meaning. I have always enjoyed reading about the papacy. It has much of the human intrigue you will find in any place. I enjoyed this book, it had me interested from the beginning.
Holy See Trilogy | Awards | LibraryThing
Having just finished Robert Harris' exceptional Cicero Trilogy finale, Dictator, I perhaps went in with high expectations here. I found this story to be pedestrian, uninteresting, where the late plot 'current affair' development and finale twist seemingly interjected in consideration of perhaps how dull the subject was.
Each of these important plot factors are very late in the book; the first not foreshadowed, and like a square peg in a round hole; and the second a lazy type narrative twist that are typical of B-grade movies. Not a terrible book; but poor in my opinion by Harris' standards - admittedly I had little interest in the topic; which however, was a drawcard, hoping that Robert Harris could make it compelling.

In some cases, as with Chronicles of Narnia , disagreements about order necessitate the creation of more than one series. If the series has an order, add a number or other descriptor in parenthesis after the series title eg. By default, it sorts by the number, or alphabetically if there is no number. If you want to force a particular order, use the character to divide the number and the descriptor.
