This collection of recordings about Brother Cadfael—a Benedictine monk and amateur sleuth in the 12th century—are performed here by the ideal actor. Sir Derek Jacobi, who portrayed Cadfael in several television adaptations, captivates listeners with his renderings of Monk's Hood, Saint Peter's Fair, The Heretic's Apprentice, The Potter's Field, The Summer of the Danes, and Brother Cadfael's Penance.

As a Benedictine Oblate, I find deep joy in these historically rich, spiritually grounded mysteries. The Adventures of Brother Cadfael captures monastic life with warmth and wisdom. Sir Derek Jacobi, well known for his work with the BBC, narrates with such depth and clarity—I could listen to these again and again. A true treasure.

These stories were always one of my favorites on PBS in the 90's. This recording is excellent. Just like I was watching them back in the day. 🙂
