 Nicked

by M.T.Anderson

Pantheon/PenguinRandomHouse                     

     If there were still an Index Librorum Prohibitorum - the Catholic Church's list of banned books, surely Nicked would be there. It is a wonderful, rollicking, seastorm adventure of relic stealing, romance, fun and faith, set in 1087 and based on a true story.

    Where is the Monty Python troupe when you need them? I'm afraid only they could do this great romp justice.
