Rereading Q by Luther Blisset. One of my favourite books. Some similarities with The Name of the Rose. Eco's book was Sherlock Homes transported to the early Middle Ages, with some history of the Catholic church sprinkled over it. This book is Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy transplanted to the time of the Herman Peasants Revolt. Cracking story hiding some serious messages in one of the most brutal episodes in European history.
