I really enjoyed this book, I loved the fact that it was set during the Black Plague.

The characters were well developed, those characters I started off hating I actually liked by the end of the book. The Black Plague was actually used to develop the plot, rather than just being a convenient setting. The story felt fresh, and it kept me guessing right until the end of the book. There's a couple of historical jokes in the book, which I particularly enjoyed. I do not know how historically accurate this book is, however it is very believable.

I only had one minor issue with it. There were a lot of chapters, to the point where almost any time there was movement in the plot, a new chapter was started. It broke up the book just a little bit too much for me.
